Step 1: Create a Log Analytics workspace.
First create the workspace.
Step 2: Add a VMInsights solution.
Before a Log Analytics workspace can be used with VM insights, it must have the VMInsights solution installed.
Step 3: Install agents on the VM and VM scale set to be monitored.
Prior to onboarding agents, you must create and configure a workspace. Install or update the Application Insights Agent as an extension for Azure virtual machines and VM scalet sets.
Step 4: Create an Application Insights resource
Sign in to the Azure portal, and create an Application Insights resource.
Once a workspace-based Application Insights resource has been created, configuring monitoring is relatively straightforward.
