Overview

Virtual machine scale sets are an Azure Compute resource used to deploy, manage, and autoscale a set of identical VMs.

Get metrics from Azure Virtual Machine Scale Set to:

• Visualize the performance of your Virtual Machine Scale Sets.
• Correlate the performance of your Virtual Machine Scale Sets with your applications.

Setup

Installation

Integration metrics are included as part of the Microsoft Azure integration. To collect metrics with the Datadog Agent, follow the instructions to deploy Agents:

• If your organization is on Datadog’s US3 site and you’ve configured the Datadog resource in Azure, use the instructions on the Azure Native Integration Manual Setup Guide.
• All sites can use the instructions on the Azure Integration Manual Setup Guide or Azure Programmatic Management Guide.

Log collection

To collect logs from specific Windows events, add channels to the conf.d/win32_event_log.d/conf.yaml file manually, or using the Datadog Agent Manager. For example:

logs:
  - type: windows_event
    channel_path: '<CHANNEL_1>'
    source: '<CHANNEL_1>'
    service: myservice
    sourcecategory: windowsevent
   - type: windows_event
    channel_path: '<CHANNEL_2>'
    source: '<CHANNEL_2>'
    service: myservice
    sourcecategory: windowsevent

For additional details, see the information for the Win 32 event log integration.
