Correct answer: Install the Azure Monitor Agent extension on each session host and associate the VMs with a Data Collection Rule configured for Azure Virtual Desktop, Update the Azure Virtual Desktop agent and side-by-side stack on each session host to the latest version.
Why this is the answer
Azure Virtual Desktop Insights relies on the Azure Monitor Agent (AMA) to collect performance and event data from session hosts. Therefore, installing the AMA extension and associating the VMs with a Data Collection Rule (DCR) specifically configured for Azure Virtual Desktop is essential. Custom images may not include the latest AVD agent and side-by-side stack, which are critical for proper data collection and reporting to Insights. Updating these components ensures compatibility and full functionality. Enabling diagnostics settings on the host pool streams control plane data, not session host performance data. Installing the legacy Log Analytics (MMA) agent is incorrect as AMA is the recommended and required agent for AVD Insights. Assigning the Monitoring Reader role is for permissions, not for data collection.
