You administer a virtual machine (VM) that is deployed to Azure. You configure a rule to
generate an alert when the average availability of a web service on your VM drops below 95
percent for 15 minutes.
The development team schedules a one-hour maintenance period.
You have the following requirements:
+ No alerts are created during the maintenance period.
+ Alerts can be restored when the maintenance is complete.
You want to achieve this goal by using the least amount of administrative effort.
What should you do from the Management Portal?
A.
Select and disable the rule from the Dashboard page of the virtual machine.
B.
Select and delete the rule from the Configure page of the virtual machine.
C.
Select and disable the rule from the Monitor page of the virtual machine.
D.
Select and disable the rule on the Configure page of the virtual machine.
Ans is B. There is no disable option for endpoint monitor rules
The answer from question is correct. Here you must disable alerts – the rules for alerts are created and managed from Monitor page.
Rules can be created from monitoring page but cannot be disabled/deleted. If you want to disable/delete alert rule, that has to be done from ‘Management Services’ page.
So, unless we have an option ‘Disable the rule from management services page’ to select, deleting endpoint monitor can be a way. But here we don’t have either.
It cannot be B also.. Sorry for that.. 😉
Agree with you

Disabling alert rules
When you create an alert rule, the Enable Rule option is selected by default. The easiest way to disable a rule is to select a rule on the Alerts page in Management Services, and then click the Disable Rule action.
is above answer is correct?
so “C” or “B” ?
from monitoring we click to rule than disable
C seems resonable
C

yes i agree C.
‘C’ looks right
reason:
After adding metrics to the Monitor page, click to enable / disable the round checkbox next to each metric.

I agree. This is the only way to do this from MONITOR
The solution proposed by Tornado is just a twist
C is correct
On the monitor page when you select the rule you are redirected to the ‘Management Services’ page where you can disable the rule.
“C”
Agreed – tested
C is correct.
ITs tempting to look into D but configure has options to change the Virtual Machine Tier , Szie , Avaiablity Set and most importantly set up the Monitoring endpoint.
But, we get to Management Services windows from the Monitor window. Answer has to be C.
