Microsoft Azure - Disks
Azure Disks are block-level storage volumes that are managed by Azure and used with Azure Virtual Machines. A managed disk is like a physical disk in an on-premises server, but virtualized. With managed disks, all you have to do is specify the disk size and disk type, and provision the disk. Once you provision the disk, Azure handles the rest.

Configuration
Connections
HTTP Main Connection
This connector uses an HTTP connection. However, it requires no input from the user, as this connector is automatically created by the Microsoft Azure Cloud Platform.
How to use
The connector requires no user input. The metrics that are polled for this resource type element are displayed on the Metrics page. The following metrics are monitored:
- Disk Read Bytes/sec
- Disk Read Operations/sec
- Disk Write Bytes/sec
- Disk Write Operations/sec
On the General page, you can configure the Polling Interval for the metrics. This same page also displays the scope (Subscription and Resource Group) this resource type element belongs to.
Notes
This connector is intended to be used together with the Microsoft Azure Cloud Platform connector. Without this manager connector, the connector will not work, as the authentication to the Azure Cloud Platform is done via the manager connector.
Currently these metrics are in preview on Microsoft Azure and are subject to change before becoming generally available.
