Troubleshoot Monitoring and Compliance with Azure Arc

Azure Arc relies on outbound connectivity from hybrid and multi-cloud servers to Azure. Azure Arc agents that have been deployed, must also be functioning properly. In this hands-on lab, you will troubleshoot an existing Azure Arc deployment by resolving issues that prevent Azure Policy from being applied and block extensions from deploying to Arc-enabled servers.
