Problem collecting log files in VM's using Azure Monitor Agent - missing columns
Hi, I'm trying to use the Azure Monitor Agent (AMA) to collect Linux log files via DCR's, into a LAW custom table. I followed the instructions in https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor...
Hi. Thanks for the pointer. I reviewed the page, and could not find anything that matched my issue. It also does not contain any specific section regarding log file collection. The agent is running, the DCR rule was downloaded, the table in LAW is getting data that the agent tails from the log file. It's just the "Computer" column is missing.
It was worth a look, some of the error logs from the agent can be useful to delve into and the article is good at identifying them on the host. You may also need it to file a support ticket.
It could be a re-install is needed (as I'd expect the Computer column to be there), I assume you have a supported Linux distro?
