What’s this?

Basic

The Azure Compute Scaleset VM data stream collects and aggregates compute scaleset VM related metrics from Azure Virtual Machine scaleset type resources where it can be used for analysis, visualization, and alerting. The Azure Compute VM Scaleset will periodically retrieve the Azure Monitor metrics using the Azure REST APIs as MetricList. Additional Azure API calls will be executed to retrieve information regarding the resources targeted by the user.

Requirements

edit

Before you start, check the Authentication and costs section.

Setup

edit

Follow these step-by-step instructions on how to set up an Azure metrics integration.

Data stream specific configuration notes

edit
Period
(string) Reporting interval. Metrics will have a timegrain of 5 minutes, so the Period configuration option for compute_vm_scaleset should have a value of 300s or multiple of `300s`for relevant results.
Resource IDs
([]string) The fully qualified ID’s of the resource, including the resource name and resource type. Has the format /subscriptions/{guid}/resourceGroups/{resource-group-name}/providers/{resource-provider-namespace}/{resource-type}/{resource-name}. Should return a list of resources.
Resource Groups
([]string) This option will return all virtual machine scalesets inside the resource group.

If no resource filter is specified, then all virtual machine scalesets inside the entire subscription will be considered.

The primary aggregation value will be retrieved for all the metrics contained in the namespaces. The aggregation options are avg, sum, min, max, total, count.
