Correct answer: Sign in to VM1 and verify the WaAppAgent.log file., From the Azure portal, view the activity log for VM1..
Why this is the answer
When an Azure VM extension fails to install, the WaAppAgent.log file on the VM itself provides detailed information about the extension installation process, including any errors encountered. This log is crucial for understanding why the installation failed from the VM's perspective. Additionally, the Azure portal's Activity Log for VM1 will show events related to the extension deployment, including its initiation and any high-level failure messages or status updates from the Azure control plane. Viewing alerts for VM1 might show general performance issues but not specific extension installation failures. The MonitoringAgent.log is related to the Azure Monitor Agent, not the general VM extension installation process.
