Integrating Azure Stack Hub monitoring with existing tools

To be able to query the Azure Stack Hub's state and health, you must connect to sufficient authorization and use an API to talk to the fabric, health, or update resource providers. Each of these API calls will follow a similar pattern, as shown in the following diagram:

Figure 12.7 – Azure Stack Hub Health API

In the preceding diagram, the flow will run as follows:

1. Authenticate with AAD.
2. Retrieve a token for an admin subscription.
3. Call the API namespace with an action.

More details about the REST API can be found at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/azure-stack/.

• Logical networks
• Storage subsystem
• File shares
• Role instances
• Scale units
• Physical servers
