[Question]: Clarification on usage telemetry

[dominiquehunziker]

Describe your question

Is an agent running in a container in AKS considered a "Docker container", i.e., is the metric supposed to indicate usage of Docker or more generally an agent running in a (Linux) container?

When I run the corresponding shell script I get false for the check for "Docker container". IMO this is because Kubernetes no longer uses Docker as the container engine and, therefore, the check for Docker specific output is not sufficient to check if the agent is being run in a container.

Requested to raise this a separate question here: #4166 (comment)
