How to create a PS/CLI script for file share capacity alert with Action group

Swa1209 90

I want to create an alert for file capacity of files and I need an action group as well.

Problem is that the storage account has 90 files and i need for each fileshare 1 Alert.

I want to try using a script to avoid taking a lot of time doing it manually.

Can someone help me with this?

@Sutheswaran, Suwhathi, thank you for posting this question on Microsoft Q&A.

Could you please help us understand the following queries related to this question so that we can help you out:

What do you mean by "file capacity of files"? If you could share relevant document /screenshot of the scenario, it would help a lot.

Also, the Action Groups are created for notifications based on the alert itself. Therefore, please clarify the use case of action group too, because the type of action group might vary depending on the use case.

Regarding the PS/CLI script - will this script be used for querying the file share related information?

Please clarify the questions above to help us understand the scenario better.

@AnuragSingh-MSFT thanks for your reply

I need to create for around 90 File Shares ->File Capacity alert. ( See picture above)

I need a script which can do it automatically. For manual i need lot of time.

I have different Storage account with File shares

example:

StorageACC_name1 -> FileShare_name_1

StorageACC_name1 -> FileShare_name_1 + FileShare_name_2 + .......

and so on

I think the New-AzMetricAlertRuleV2 cmdlet is what you're looking for. If you need to work with "classic" alerts, the Add-AzMetricAlertRule might be what you want.
