A replacement exam, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.testpreptraining.ai\/data-engineering-on-microsoft-azure-dp-203-practice-exam\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">DP-203<\/a>, is available.<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Azure Storage Analytics provides metrics for all storage services, and logs for blobs, queues, and tables. Moreover, you can use the Azure portal to configure which metrics and logs are recorded for your account. And, also configure charts that provide visual representations of your metrics data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Configure monitoring for a storage account<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Firstly, in the Azure portal, select Storage accounts, then the storage account name to open the account dashboard.<\/li><li>Secondly, select Diagnostics in the MONITORING section of the menu blade.<\/li><li>Thirdly, select the type of metrics data for each service you wish to monitor, and the retention policy for the data. You can also disable monitoring by setting Status to Off.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>However, to set the data retention policy, move the Retention (days) slider or enter the number of days of data to retain, from 1 to 365. The default for new storage accounts is seven days. If you do not want to set a retention policy, enter zero. If there is no retention policy, it is up to you to delete the monitoring data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Lastly, when you finish the monitoring configuration, select Save.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Customize metrics charts<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Use the following procedure to choose which storage metrics to view in a metrics chart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Firstly, start by displaying a storage metric chart in the Azure portal. You can find charts on the storage account blade and in the Metrics blade for an individual service (blob, queue, table, file).<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.testpreptraining.ai\/implementing-an-azure-data-solution-dp-200-free-practice-test\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"961\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.testpreptraining.ai\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/dp-200-pracice-tests-1.png\" alt=\"DP-200 practice tests\" class=\"wp-image-18535\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.testpreptraining.ai\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/dp-200-pracice-tests-1.png 961w, https:\/\/www.testpreptraining.ai\/tutorial\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/dp-200-pracice-tests-1-750x117.png 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 961px) 100vw, 961px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>In this example, uses the following chart that appears on the storage account blade:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/en-us\/azure\/storage\/common\/media\/storage-monitor-storage-account\/stg-customize-chart-00.png\" alt=\"Chart selection in Azure portal\" width=\"880\" height=\"318\"\/><figcaption>Image Source: Microsoft<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Secondly, click anywhere within the chart to edit the chart.<\/li><li>Next, select the Time Range of the metrics to display in the chart, and the service (blob, queue, table, file) whose metrics you wish to display.
