+This article describes how to manage Azure Local virtual machines (VMs) enabled by Azure Arc. The procedures to enable guest management, start, stop, restart, pause, save, or delete an Azure Local VM, are detailed.
 
 ## Prerequisites
 
 - Access to an Azure Local instance that's deployed and registered. The deployment of an Azure Local instance includes the creation of an Azure Arc resource bridge and a custom location.
 
   Go to the resource group in Azure. The displayed information includes the custom location and the Azure Arc resource bridge created for Azure Local. Make a note of the subscription, the resource group, and the custom location. You use them later in this scenario.

+- One or more Azure Local VMs running on your Azure Local instance. For more information, see [Create Azure Local virtual machines](./create-arc-virtual-machines.md).
 
 ## Enable guest management
 
-It's important to understand two agents in the context of guest management: a VM guest agent and an Azure Connected Machine agent. Every Azure Arc VM created via the Azure portal or the Azure CLI is provisioned with a guest agent (also called `mocguestagent`) on it.

-When you enable guest management on an Azure Arc VM, the guest agent installs the [Azure Connected Machine agent](/azure/azure-arc/servers/agent-overview). You use the Azure Connected Machine agent to manage Azure Arc VM extensions on your VM.
+When you enable guest management on an Azure Local VM, the guest agent installs the [Azure Connected Machine agent](/azure/azure-arc/servers/agent-overview). You use the Azure Connected Machine agent to manage Azure Local VM extensions on your VM.
 
 Here are some key considerations for enabling guest management on a VM after you provision it:
 
 - Make sure that your Azure Local instance is running 2311.2 or later.
 - Enabling guest management after VM provisioning isn't supported for Windows Server 2012 and Windows Server 2012 R2.
