I read that the Log Analytics agent is specifically designed for this purpose, so I think we should stick with that.

I believe the Log Analytics agent is more specialized for log collection compared to the Azure Monitor agent.

But what about the Azure Monitor agent? Wouldn't that also work for data collection?

You know, I was just thinking the same thing. The Azure Monitor agent might be a better choice, especially if we're looking to monitor both the Windows and Linux VMs in our landscape. It could provide a more unified monitoring solution.

Hmm, I'm not so sure. The Azure Monitor agent (option C) also seems like it could work for this use case. It's a newer agent that can collect logs and metrics from both Windows and Linux VMs.

I agree with Kayleigh. The Log Analytics agent is the correct choice here. It's specifically designed for log collection, and it integrates with Azure Monitor to make it easy to centralize and analyze the logs.

This question is pretty straightforward. To collect logs from the VMs, we'll need to install the Log Analytics agent, which is option A.
