 ## Overview
 
-The Microsoft Azure Linux VM Agent is a secure, lightweight process that manages virtual machine (VM) interaction with the Azure fabric controller. The Azure Linux VM Agent has a primary role in enabling and executing Azure virtual machine extensions. VM extensions enable post-deployment configuration of VMs, such as installing and configuring software. VM extensions also enable recovery features such as resetting the administrative password of a VM. Without the Azure Linux VM Agent, you can't run VM extensions.

 ## Purpose  
-The Linux version of VM assist is comprised of bash and Python scripts used to detect potential issues with the Guest Agent in a Linux VM in addition to other issues related to the general health of the VM. Output is intended to be viewed in the serial console and provide pointers to solve well-known issues, as well as certain deviations from best practice which can affect VM availability. The intention is for engineers to provide this script to customers via GitHub, but it is possible and acceptable that a customer uses the script on their own and provides data through an SR.

 ## Prerequisites
 
-- VM needs to be booting to the full OS, i.e. not emergency or maintenance mode.
-- root-level access either through sudo or direct login/sudo -i

 ## How to run the tool
 
-The VM assist scripting is run initially from the above documentation. Subsequent runs can be done by running the bash script directly - `vmassist.sh` as root or using `sudo`.

 ## Known issues
-- Do not attempt to run VM assist on appliances - these are not general purpose operating systems, and the Guest Agent may not run at all.
-- Distributions outside of PAYG versions of RedHat or SUSE, or any Ubuntu or Mariner/Azure Linux may display false positive warnings about repository names. This will require a more careful reading as the repositories may be official but do not match strict pattern matching as we do not build cases for all distributions.
-- Ubuntu 24.04 has a differing architecture of the SSH service, and may flag the service even though it is operating fine.
