You have an Azure subscription named Subscription1.
You deploy a Linux virtual machine named VM1 to Subscription1.
You need to monitor the metrics and the logs of VM1.
What should you use?

  • A. the AzurePerformanceDiagnostics extension
  • B. Azure HDInsight
  • C. Linux Diagnostic Extension (LAD) 3.0
  • D. Azure Analysis Services
Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A 🗳️
You can use extensions to configure diagnostics on your VMs to collect additional metric data.
The basic host metrics are available, but to see more granular and VM-specific metrics, you need to install the Azure diagnostics extension on the VM. The Azure diagnostics extension allows additional monitoring and diagnostics data to be retrieved from the VM.

Correct. Reference: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/extensions/diagnostics-linux Why A is wrong: Performance Diagnostics Prerequisites: This extension can be installed on Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2, and Windows Server 2016. It can also be installed on Windows 8.1 and Windows 10. Reference: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/troubleshooting/performance-diagnostics-vm-extension#prerequisites I believe some are confusing Linux PerfInsights with Performance Diagnostics because it is in the same section in the documentation as the Windows version, but as referenced above, the product specifically named Performance Diagnostics Extension is only for Windows.

This article doesn't talk about the Extension. The extension for performance diagnostics for Linux is Linux Diagnostic Extension

It seems both A & C are correct. Azure Performance Diagnosis extension and Linux Diagnosis Extension both can be used for monitor metrics and logs. Can anyone explain why the answer C is not correct here?

Such confusing question. LAD *IS* a Azure diagnostic extension. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/platform/diagnostics-extension-overview A and C are both "correct" The provided "tutorial monitoring" proof/refence link doesn't support A.

You can use Linux Diagnostic Extension to monitor metrics and logs: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/extensions/diagnostics-linux However you can also use Performance diagnostics to collect logs and metrics (CPU, disk space, or memory) and it suports Linux as well: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/troubleshooting/performance-diagnostics So for me options A and C, both are correct.
