> To check if you have any machines with both agents sending data to your Log Analytics workspace, run the following [log query](../logs/log-query-overview.md) in [Log Analytics](../logs/log-analytics-overview.md). This query will show the last heartbeat for each computer. If a computer has both agents, it will return two records, each with a different `category`. The Azure Monitor agent will have a `category` of *Azure Monitor Agent*. The Log Analytics agent will have a `category` of *Direct Agent*.
