An organization needs to monitor the status of its Azure deployments. The operations team must distinguish between issues affecting the overall Azure cloud infrastructure, events impacting services under their specific subscription, and availability issues of individual virtual machine instances. Which of the following actions should the team perform to achieve these goals? (Select TWO)
- Create Service Health alerts to receive notifications about planned maintenance and active service outages that affect the resources within their subscription.Answer
- Review Resource Health to diagnose whether a specific virtual machine is unavailable due to an Azure platform-level event rather than a configuration error within the guest operating system.Answer
- CConfigure Azure Monitor metric alerts to automatically track global Azure service outages and scheduled platform maintenance across all regions.
- DSet up Azure Advisor alerts to monitor the real-time resource availability of individual virtual machines and track platform-level hardware failures.
Answer
To monitor subscription-level and resource-level health, the team should use Service Health alerts to track planned maintenance and active outages affecting their subscription, and use Resource Health to check the status of specific virtual machine instances.
The correct actions are using Service Health alerts for subscription-level events and Resource Health for specific resource-level failures. Service Health allows users to set up alerts for planned maintenance and outages affecting their specific subscriptions, while Resource Health shows the status of individual resources (like a virtual machine) and helps determine if an issue is caused by the Azure platform.
