Description

Azure Monitor for containers now supports the preview of capacity monitoring of Persistent Volume (PV) attached to your AKS cluster. Beginning with agent version ciprod10052020, Azure Monitor for containers will start collecting capacity metrics for all the PVs except kubesystem namespace. This preview supports:

  • Visualization of the all the PVs associated with your Pods via Workloads workbook.
  • Monitoring capacity usage trends & status of the PVs.
  • Enable fast metrics based alert via recommended alerts (preview).
  • Query and consume PV capacity data at Log Analytics via KQL query.

Learn more about how you can configure agent for PV metrics.

By default we collect PV metrics for alerts once the capacity reaches 60% and above. You can configure this threshold to collect metrics beyond 60% utilization.
