VM monitoring - no available data

Question

On the new azure portal I cannot access the monitoring data (CPU, Memory, ...) for my virtual machines.

Before all I precise that yes "Monitoring diagnostics status" is on and yes the "storage account" is set up.

When I change the time period to 7 days I can observe that values were stored but now not anymore.

Thank you by advance for your advises ..!

Edit: It seems to be a specific problem to my Linux virtual machines

Edit 2: In the extensions of the VM the "Microsoft.Insights.VMDiagnosticsSettings" contain the following error "Error: EnumerateInstances failed"

Answer 2

Hello Kamalakar,

Thanks for your support.

Unfortunately, the link you mentioned was for classic VM not Azure Resource VM which is my case.

I tried different things like re-installing the waagent from my Ubuntu LTS 14.04 VM but nothing change even after I rebooted. I still don't have the values in the monitoring tile from Azure portal.

I also see that another service named cloud-init is mentioned on some post I've read. I am not sure how those two programs work together and with the Azure cloud platform.

Any details about the correct configuration to have for this version of Ubuntu is welcome !

Thank you very much.

Regards,

Antowan

Hello Antowan,

We are pleased to answer your query.

This looks like an issue which needs in-depth troubleshooting as we will need to find out the root cause. As this is beyond the purview of the Forums Support, we would request you to create a Technical Ticket so that our engineers can help you appropriately. Also we would need sensitive information regarding the Subscription and deployment details which should not be disclosed on the Public Forums.

Hope this helps!
