Microsoft Monitoring Agent 2013 Update 1 Preview

Last Friday Microsoft made the new PREVIEW version of the Microsoft Monitoring Agent (MMA) available for download, version 1.60.1.

As you already know, MMA is capable of functioning WITHOUT a SCOM Management Group to report to. In that case it’s used as a part of Application Insights for Visual Studio Online, as a stand-alone monitoring tool.

Of course, the MMA is capable of operating with SCOM as well and is backwards compatible with older SCOM versions like SCOM 2007 R2 environments:
