Azure Monitoring: Tracking maximum concurrent sessions over 30 days

Question

Is it feasible to track the highest concurrent sessions in Azure Monitoring for the past 30 days? We're planning to expand our VMs but require metrics such as the maximum number of users connected to a VM on a specific date. For example, on May 17th, there were 12 simultaneous users connected to one VM, while on May 19th, there were 14 users simultaneously connected. Thank you.

Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum.

First, you need to enable guest-level monitoring for your VMs. This allows Azure Monitor to collect performance counters and event logs from the guest operating system.

Once guest-level monitoring is enabled, you need to configure the performance counters you want to collect. create a Log Analytics workspace if you don't have one already. This workspace will store the performance data collected from your VMs.
