QuestionQ45

Maintain SAP workloads on Azure

You have an Azure subscription that contains a virtual machine named Server1. Server1 runs Windows Server and hosts SAP Central Services (SCS).

You deploy the new version of the Azure VM Extension for SAP solutions to Server1.

You need to verify whether the extension is collecting performance metrics.

What should you do on Server1?

  • A From Microsoft Edge, navigate to http://127.0.0.1:11812/azure4sap/metrics.
  • B Run the Get-AzMetric cmdlet.
  • C Run the Get-AzVMDiagnosticsExtension cmdlet.
  • D From Microsoft Edge, navigate to http://169.254.169.254/metadata/instance?api-version=2021-02-01.
Explanation

The new Azure VM Extension for SAP exposes its collected monitoring data through the local http://127.0.0.1:11812/azure4sap/metrics endpoint. On a Windows VM, opening that endpoint returns or downloads an XML document containing the populated Azure performance counters for SAP and the extension’s health status.
