Audit logs on Azure VM Resize

Question

_{Tuesday, April 10, 2018 8:53 AM}

I would like to see a history of all past VM sizes changes in the activity log. It should preferably be so user friendly that all users dare to resize themselves.

I have checked the Azure Activity Logs but that does not give me the details on the Azure VM Resize activities

You can check audit logs for the azure vm resize using Azure Monitor. When you check activity logs in the Azure monitor blade you can see the operations that related to Vm resize notifications under operation “write virtual machines “ and event initiated by whom as shown below.

For more information refer document link “View activity logs to audit actions on resources”.

Azure activity log shows resize operation as a write operation succeeded or failure and does not show information about the vm which has resized from to specific size in the form of a log.

Currently. We do not have that sort of logging. The fabric does not see these operations as a specific resize type operation. It just knows when the size change was made and makes a write operation to allocate more or less resources.

I would suggest you to submit your feedback on a feature request.
