Based on the exhibit, a metric alert already exists for VM01, but the on-call team never receives an email when CPU exceeds 80% for 5 minutes. What should you configure to deliver the notification?

Create a diagnostic setting on VM01 to export metrics to Log Analytics.

Exports data for analysis, but it does not send alert notifications to people.

Assign the Reader role to the on-call team so they can view the alert.

Reader allows viewing resources, but it does not create or route alert notifications.

Create a resource lock on VM01 to prevent accidental changes.

A lock protects the resource, but it does not generate monitoring notifications.

What does this AZ-104 question test?

Static NAT maps one inside address to one outside address.

What is the correct answer to this question?

The correct answer is: Add an action group to the alert rule and configure email delivery. — An alert rule evaluates the metric, but an action group determines what happens when the threshold is met. Since the rule already exists and the Actions field is empty, the missing step is to attach an action group with an email receiver. Diagnostic settings export telemetry for analysis, while Reader permissions and resource locks do not send notifications. Why others are wrong: Diagnostic settings send logs and metrics to a destination for later analysis, not notification delivery. Reader only grants view access and does not change alert behavior. A resource lock helps prevent deletion or modification, but it does not create an alert response path. The only option that actually notifies the team when the alert fires is an action group.

What should I do if I get this AZ-104 question wrong?

Then try more questions from the same exam bank and focus on understanding why the wrong options are tempting.
