[<CommonParameters>] Description
The Add-AzMetricAlertRule cmdlet adds or updates a metric-based alert rule. The added rule is associated with a resource group and has a name. This cmdlet implements the ShouldProcess pattern, i.e. it might request confirmation from the user before actually creating, modifying, or removing the resource.
Examples
Example 1: Add a metric alert rule to a website
Add-AzMetricAlertRule -Name "metricRule5" -Location "East US" -ResourceGroup "Default-Web-EastUS" -Operator GreaterThan -Threshold 2 -WindowSize 00:05:00 -MetricName "Requests" -Description "Pura Vida" -TimeAggregationOperator Total
RequestId StatusCode
--------- ----------

Example 2: Disable a rule
Add-AzMetricAlertRule -Name "metricRule5" -Location "East US" -ResourceGroup Default-Web-EastUS -Operator GreaterThan -Threshold 2 -WindowSize 00:05:00 -MetricName "Requests" -TimeAggregationOperator Total

Example 3: Add a rule with actions
Add-AzMetricAlertRule -Name "metricRule5" -Location "East US" -ResourceGroup "Default-Web-EastUS" -Operator GreaterThan -Threshold 1 -TargetResourceId "/subscriptions/b93fb07a-6f93-30be-bf3e-4f0deca15f4f/resourceGroups/Default-Web-EastUS/providers/microsoft.web/sites/mywebsite" -MetricName "Requests" -TimeAggregationOperator Total
