Configuring Monitoring Services
Azure Monitor is enabled as soon as you create an Azure resource. By default, the basic metrics and logs are recorded without requiring any configuration changes from the user side, but you can perform additional configurations such as sending the logs to Log Analytics, as you saw in the previous section.

Operating System (OS) monitoring |
