To monitor the CPU utilization of a virtual machine and receive notifications when it exceeds a certain threshold, you should configure a metric alert. Metric alerts are designed to track the values of system metrics like CPU usage, memory consumption, and network traffic in real-time.
Activity log alerts are used for events recorded in the Azure Activity Log, such as resource creation or deletion. Log query alerts are based on queries over logged data and are suitable for more complex scenarios that involve analyzing logs. Application Insights alerts are specific to application performance and would not directly monitor virtual machine CPU metrics.
