Hi Team, I want to build a use case to pull the Azure PAAS resources metrics using azure DCR and push that data metrics to log analytics workspace which eventually will push the data to azure event hub through streaming and final destination as azure postgres to store all the resources metrics information in a centralized table and create KPIs and dashboard for the clients for better utilization of resources. I have not used diagnose setting enabling option since it has its cons like we need to manually enable each resources settings also we get limited information extracted from diagnose setting. But while implementing i saw multiple articles stating DCR is not used for pulling PAAS metrics its only compatible for VM metrics. Want to understand is it possible to use DCR for PAAS metrics? Thanks in advance for any inputs.Solved82Views0likes2CommentsCan I use regex in a DCR custom text logfile filepath?
Hi, I have about 50 servers attached to a DCR to collect a custom text log into a log analytics workspace custom table. Is it possible or if anyone has experience with using a regex filepath in the DCR situation? The logs are in the same format but paths differs slightly on each servers. There are two structures, but includes the servernames so we have 50 different filepaths: App Server c:\appserver\logs\<server Fully Qualified Name>\server\*.log App Portal c:\appportal\logs\<server Fully Qualified Name>\portal\*.log When I use static paths it works (there's a limit of 20 by the way). I have tried using the following regex filepath nothing comes in: c:\app(server|portal)\logs\SYS[a-zA-Z0-9]{4}wm[0-9]{2}.domain.net\(server|portal)\*.log Can someone confirm with me whether I can use regex in the filepath pattern in the DCR Data Source Tex log setup? If so, how do I get it to work please? Am I missing some escapes somewhere please? Many thanks in advance.196Views0likes1Comment
