Azure Arc Patching
Working on getting boxes onboarded with Azure Arc since we are mostly cloud based, but still have a few boxes left on prem. In my lab I am able to enroll and setup patching via Azure without much iss...
Considering this:
- Check Azure Arc Logs: Review the logs in the Azure Arc console to see if there are any errors or warnings related to patching.
- Log Analytics: Ensure that your servers are linked to a Log Analytics Workspace. You can check the workspace for patching-related events and logs.
- Manual Verification: Manually check the patch status on the server using commands like Get-WindowsUpdateLog in PowerShell or wmic qfe list in the command prompt.
- Azure Automation: Verify that the Azure Automation account and runbooks are correctly configured to apply patches. You can check the runbook execution history for any issues.
- Azure Arc Validation: Use the Azure Arc validation tools to ensure that your setup is compliant with Azure Arc requirements.
thank you for the response
- Azure Arc Logs - all look good and appear to good installs
- Will look into analytics going forward for when we flip to prod
- Manual Verification of the OS build seems to be the current method to validate if it's been patched
- Not using Azure Automation, its strictly Azure Arc, however, will see if it built any behind the scenes...I am trying to get a post to Teams when they patch as a notification, but the payload is causing issues
- Azure Arc validated without issue
