You have three servers named Server1, Server2, and Server3 that run Windows Server. The servers have the Hyper-V server role installed and are configured in a Storage Spaces Direct cluster named Cluster1.
Cluster1 hosts a virtual machine named VM1 that has Windows Admin Center installed.
You manage all servers and clusters by using Windows Admin Center.
You purchase an Azure subscription.
You need to configure email alerts in Azure Monitor for the following:
✑ Disk Capacity Utilization Over 80 % for 10 Minutes
✑ Any critical alert in the cluster system event log
✑ Memory Utilization over 95 % for 10 Minutes
✑ Heartbeat fewer than 5 beats for 5 Minutes
✑ CPU Utilization over 85 % for 10 Minutes
✑ Any health service faults for the cluster
The solution must use the minimum amount of administrative effort.
What should you do?
- A. From the Azure portal, configure Azure Monitor and onboard Cluster1 by using Azure Arc.
- B. From Windows Admin Center, configure Azure Monitor and onboard Cluster1.
- C. Configure Azure Monitor and manually install the Microsoft Monitoring Agent on Server1 Server2, and Server3
B. From Windows Admin Center, configure Azure Monitor and onboard Cluster1.

You can certainly onboard a cluster to Azure Monitor using Windows Admin Center, see the link that dieymir has provided: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/storage/storage-spaces/configure-azure-monitor But as far as the configuration of the Azure Monitor settings goes, Windows Admin Center is limited to two options, not the ones that this question is about: "From within Windows Admin Center, you can enable two monitoring solutions: Azure Update Management (in the Updates tool) Azure Monitor for VMs (in server Settings), also known as Virtual Machines insights" (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/manage/windows-admin-center/azure/azure-monitor)

I say its B due to -> https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/storage/storage-spaces/configure-azure-monitor During this onboarding flow, the steps below are happening under the hood. We detail how to configure them in detail in case you want to manually setup your cluster.

While it is possible to configure Azure Monitor and onboard a server to Azure Monitor from Windows Admin Center, the question specifically asks for a solution that requires the minimum amount of administrative effort. Onboarding each server individually through Windows Admin Center could be more time-consuming and administratively intensive, especially if there are many servers in the cluster1. On the other hand, using Azure Arc allows you to manage and monitor your on-premises servers from the Azure portal. This provides a centralized management experience and reduces the need for manual configuration on each server. Therefore, option A is considered to require less administrative effort compared to option B

Windows Admin Center provides a centralized web-based management interface for Windows Server environments. It includes built-in integration with Azure services, such as Azure Monitor. By configuring Azure Monitor directly from Windows Admin Center, you can onboard your entire cluster and virtual machines with minimal administrative effort. Answer is B for sure

B) The solution must use the minimum amount of administrative effort. Windows Admin Center is capable of meeting these requirements and least amount of effort compared to A. https://www.virtualizationhowto.com/2019/06/manage-storage-spaces-direct-with-windows-admin-center/ https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/manage/windows-admin-center/azure/azure-monitor

A question which won't age well. MMA via WAC's Azure Monitor for VMs (Insights) does support all the requirements and doesn't need Arc & AMA separately deploying, so is a valid option at the time the question was written (noting least administrative overhead), but given MMA has a finite life (Aug 2024), the only recommended method will soon fall back to 'A'.

This one is confusing because it says "You manage all servers and clusters by using Windows Admin Center" which suggests that needs to be part of the answer. But it doesn't say "You MUST manage all servers and clusters by using Windows Admin Center".
