Azure on-premise server monitoring
When installing the Log Analytics or the monitoring agent to an on-premise (Hybrid) server, note the server object will not appear in Azure monitor, only connected machines (Azure VMs) will be visible. As the data is aggregated in the Log Anlaytics workspace alerts can be configured there for hybrid machines as below:
When creating an alert rule the Scope will always be the ‘log analytics workspace’. This is where we would configure thresholds etc.
For availability i.e. if a on-prem machine is no longer reachable we would do this here:
And configure the alert as below example. This generates an alert when the machine becomes unavailable and then another when it becomes available again.
