To manage Microsoft updates on Server1 using Azure Arc, you need to perform the following two actions:

A. From the Automation account, enable Update Management for Server1: Update Management in Azure Automation provides a unified way to manage updates and patches for both Azure VMs and on-premises machines. To enable Update Management for Server1, you need to follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the Azure Automation account that you have in your subscription.
  2. Select the Update Management blade from the left-hand menu.
  3. On the Update Management blade, click on the Add Azure Arc Machines button.
  4. Select Server1 from the list of available machines.
  5. Review and configure the settings on the Configure Update Settings page.
  6. Click on the Enable button to enable Update Management for Server1.

B. From the Virtual machines data source of the Log Analytics workspace, connect Server1: Log Analytics is a service that helps you collect and analyze data from various sources, including on-premises machines, Azure VMs, and other cloud services. To connect Server1 to the Log Analytics workspace, you need to follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the Log Analytics workspace that you have in your subscription.
  2. Select the Virtual machines data source blade from the left-hand menu.
  3. On the Virtual machines data source blade, click on the Connect button.
  4. Select Azure Arc from the list of available sources.
  5. Select Server1 from the list of available machines.
  6. Review and configure the settings on the Connect machines page.
  7. Click on the Connect button to connect Server1 to the Log Analytics workspace.

C. On Server1, install the Azure Monitor agent (incorrect option): The Azure Monitor agent is a lightweight agent that collects monitoring data from various sources, including performance counters, Windows events, and logs. While installing the Azure Monitor agent on Server1 is necessary for collecting monitoring data from the machine, it is not required for managing Microsoft updates on the machine using Azure Arc.

D. Add Microsoft Sentinel to the Log Analytics workspace (incorrect option): Microsoft Sentinel is a cloud-native security information and event management (SIEM) service that uses machine learning and AI to analyze large volumes of data across an enterprise. While adding Microsoft Sentinel to the Log Analytics workspace can help you identify and respond to security threats, it is not required for managing Microsoft updates on the machine using Azure Arc.
