Gather Log Analytics/MMA agent version

Had some questions come up from the community to check the Log Analytics agent version.

Depending on how you are setup, the SCOM Integration makes this easy with Holman’s blog for the agent management pack.

If you have admin right in Operations Manager console then you can check this directly from SCOM server:

If you are an admin in SCOM, you can check from MS

$Server = “DC01.yourlabnamehere.net”
(Get-SCOMAgent -Name $ServerName).Version

Alternatively, from server registry:

(Get-ItemProperty “HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Operations Manager\3.0\setup”)

# Just the Agent version variable

(Get-ItemProperty “HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Operations Manager\3.0\setup”).AgentVersion

MMA Agent and SCOM Agent version numbers


 

FYI – Updated 24 June 2022

 

What are the MMA Agent and SCOM Agent version numbers?

This idea sprung from a discussion with Sr. PFE Brian Barrington, and it got me wondering…See below for more details on OMS/MMA, and SCOM agent versions, as well as how to verify agent from PowerShell.

 

 

FYI – If you’re running a SCOM agent, 2016 or above, various Log Analytics solutions may have pre-reqs.

The Content Dev team under Brian Wren added this to the docs.microsoft.com site

SCOM 2022     https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/system-center/scom/release-build-versions?view=sc-om-2022

SCOM 2019     https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/system-center/scom/release-build-versions?view=sc-om-2019

SCOM 2016      https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/system-center/scom/release-build-versions?view=sc-om-2016

 

 

Azure Monitor Agent

AMA (Azure Monitor Agent)/ALA/OMS/MMA Agent can run on Windows/Linux operations systems.  Name has changed over the years, where AMA (Azure Monitor Agent) will be the name going forward for the cloud based offer.  See docs article here.

This also has been updated on the Docs site

Review what operating systems are covered here

Previously known as Windows OMS/ALA/MMA agent

Unfortunately, there’s no github repo that I’ve found.

Examples:

As of 6 Sep 2018, MMA agent = 8.0.11103.0

As of 17 Oct 2018, MMA agent = 8.0.11136.0

Skipping forward to 2020, the MMA agent is 10.20.18040.0

[!WARNING] The Log Analytics agents are on a deprecation path and will no longer be supported after August 31, 2024.

 

 

OMS Gateway

Older product published in 2016 – Download link here

OMS Gateway requires Microsoft Monitoring Agent (MMA)

(agent version – 8.0.10900.0 or later)

Simple English, that means SCOM2016 RTM agent or above
