Hi, Guys:

As per Azure doc, "When VM impacting maintenance is required it will almost always be completed through a VM pause for less than 10 seconds. In rare circumstances, no more than once every 18 months for general purpose VM sizes, Azure uses a mechanism that will pause the VM for about 30 seconds. After any pause operation the VM clock is automatically synchronized upon resume.",

How do I figure out or where to find out that the a living migration (such as above VM pause 10 seconds, etc., ) happened on my VM instance on Azure?

Thanks.

    I will give you 3 ways to achieve your requirements, as shown below.

    1. You can check these kinds of events using the Azure Resource Health tool.
    2. Activity logs can also used to check maintenance events.
    3. If you are familiar with Azure Monitor KQL queries, you can run a query to fetch these maintenance events easily.
