Inventory

Start simple with inventory. Customise the Azure Arc-enabled Servers view and then create a resource graph query that can go across subscriptions.

TO BE UPDATED

Simple Resource Graph query

Search the Resource Graph Explorer for Microsoft.HybridCompute/machines as per the Arc server’s properties.

Example query:

resources
| where type == "microsoft.hybridcompute/machines"

Refined Resource Graph query

The project operator allows rename and easy dot notation for JSON drill down.

resources
| where type == "microsoft.hybridcompute/machines"
| project resourceGroup, name, os=properties.osSku, platform=tags.platform, cluster=tags.cluster, appId=identity.principalId, status=properties.status
| sort by name asc

Workbooks are created from the blade in Azure Monitor.

Discussion points

These are covered by the networking radio button when generating the script.

It gives the option to specify a proxy server, or to use a private endpoint (preview) if the on prem environment is connected to Azure using ExpressRoute or a S2S VPN link.

Success criteria

Screen share with your proctor to show that you achieved:

  1. Onboarding all linux servers

  2. Basic Resource Graph Explorer report

    resources
    | where type == "microsoft.hybridcompute/machines"
    

Stretch targets:

  1. Customised Resource Graph query

    resources
    | where type == "microsoft.hybridcompute/machines"
    | project resourceGroup, name, os=properties.osSku, platform=tags.platform, cluster=tags.cluster, appId=identity.principalId, status=properties.status
    | sort by name asc
