Azure Site Recovery (ASR) now surfaces default alerts via Azure Monitor for critical events such as replication health turning unhealthy, failover failures, agent expiry, and so on. You can monitor these alerts via the Azure Business Continuity Center, Azure Monitor dashboard, or your Recovery Services vault and route these alerts to various notification channels of choice (Email, ITSM, Webhook, SMS).
We recommend using built-in Azure Monitor alerts over classic alerts to leverage the following benefits of Azure Monitor:
-
Ability to configure notifications to a wide range of notification channels supported by Azure Monitor
-
Ability to select which scenarios to get notified for
-
Ability to have a consistent alerts management experience for multiple Azure services including backup, with at-scale management capabilities
