Question

Difficulty: MediumAzure Monitor and Log Analytics

A company hosts a web application on several Azure virtual machines. The IT team needs to implement a monitoring solution to track resource performance and automate responses to system events.

Which two tasks can the team perform by using Azure Monitor? (Select two.)

  1. Collect and analyze performance metrics from the guest operating system of the virtual machines.Answer
  2. Configure an alert to send an email notification when the CPU utilization of a virtual machine exceeds a specific threshold.Answer
  3. C
    Track global Azure datacenter outages and upcoming planned maintenance events that impact the virtual machines.
  4. D
    Assign administrative roles to users to control who can start or stop the virtual machines.

Answer

Collect and analyze performance metrics from the guest operating system of the virtual machines, and configure an alert to send an email notification when the CPU utilization of a virtual machine exceeds a specific threshold.
Azure Monitor is designed to collect and analyze telemetry data from Azure resources, including the guest operating system of virtual machines. Additionally, it allows users to configure alerts that trigger automated actions (such as sending email notifications) when specific metric thresholds (such as CPU utilization) are exceeded.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Identify the primary capabilities of Azure Monitor.
Azure Monitor collects, analyzes, and acts on telemetry data from cloud and on-premises environments. This includes gathering metrics and logs from resources (including the guest operating system) and setting up metric-based alerts to notify administrators.
To distinguish the valid features of Azure Monitor from other Azure governance and management services.
2
Evaluate the option regarding tracking outages and maintenance.
This is a feature of Azure Service Health, which focuses on Microsoft-side service status rather than the telemetry of the customer's specific resources.
To rule out the service health distractor.
3
Evaluate the option regarding administrative roles.
This is a feature of Azure Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), which handles identity and access management.
To rule out the access control distractor.

Key Concept

Azure Monitor collects telemetry (metrics and logs) from Azure resources and provides alerting capabilities based on that data.
