Microsoft Azure Administrator Associate AZ-104 Practice Question
You are an Azure administrator managing several virtual machines. You need to be notified if any of these machines experience sustained high processing load exceeding 80% for more than 5 minutes. Which Azure feature should you use to set up this notification?
Use Azure Monitor Logs to create a query and set up an alert
Install Application Insights to monitor application performance
Configure a metric alert in Azure Monitor for the performance metric
Enable diagnostics settings to send metrics to a storage account
To receive notifications when a virtual machine's processing load exceeds a threshold, you should set up a metric alert in Azure Monitor. Metric alerts allow you to monitor real-time metrics and trigger actions when specified conditions are met, such as high processing usage over a sustained period.
Using Azure Monitor Logs to create a query is more suitable for analyzing and alerting on log data, not real-time metric data. Enabling diagnostics settings to send metrics to a storage account collects data for analysis but does not provide immediate alerting capabilities. Installing Application Insights is intended for monitoring application performance and does not directly monitor virtual machine-level metrics like processing load.
