  2. B
    Azure Arc
  3. Azure Service HealthAnswer
  4. D
    Azure Policy

Answer

Azure Service Health
Azure Service Health is the correct dashboard because it provides a personalized view of the status of Azure services and regions in your specific subscriptions. It includes historical data on service issues, planned maintenance, and health advisories that have impacted your active resources.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Analyze the requirement to find a tool that shows historical Microsoft-reported outages and maintenance events affecting specific subscription resources.
Identify that the search is for platform-level health data tailored to the customer's resources rather than internal application metrics.
This filters out tools that monitor resource performance or enforce governance policies.
2
Compare the capabilities of Azure Service Health and Azure Monitor.
Determine that Azure Monitor tracks resource-specific metrics and logs, while Azure Service Health tracks platform-wide events affecting the subscription.
This resolves the common misconception between resource-level monitoring and platform-level service health tracking.
3
Select the service that offers personalized health history of outages and planned maintenance.
Select Azure Service Health.
Azure Service Health directly provides a dashboard with personalized alerts and history for events impacting the tenant's deployed services.

Key Concept

Azure Service Health provides a personalized dashboard and alerts for tracking Azure service issues, planned maintenance, and health advisories that affect your specific resources.
