Planning and Administering Microsoft Azure for SAP Workloads — Question 42
You have an Azure subscription that contains an Azure Monitor for SAP solutions resource and a virtual machine named VM1. VM1 runs SUSE Enterprise Linux (SLES) and hosts an SAP NetWeaver application server.
You need to monitor the CPU, memory, and network usage of VM1 by using the Azure Monitor for SAP solutions resource.
What should you do first?
Answer options
- A. On VM1, install the Prometheus node exporter.
- B. From the Azure portal, add the Azure Monitor for SAP solutions NetWeaver provider.
- C. From the Azure portal, add the Azure Monitor for SAP solutions OS (Linux) provider.
- D. On VM1, install the Telegraf agent.
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is A because installing the Prometheus node exporter on VM1 is essential for collecting metrics on CPU, memory, and network usage, which Azure Monitor can then analyze. The other options involve adding providers or agents without first setting up the necessary exporter that gathers the required metrics from the VM.
