How to use the MedTech service monitoring and health checks tabs

In this article, learn how to use the MedTech service monitoring and health check tabs in the Azure portal. The monitoring and health check tabs provide access to crucial MedTech service metrics and health checks. These metrics and health checks can be used in assessing the health and performance of your MedTech service and can be useful seeing patterns and/or trends or assisting with troubleshooting your MedTech service.

Use the MedTech service monitoring tab

  1. Within your Azure Health Data Services workspace, select MedTech service under Services.

  3. The MedTech service monitoring tab opens, displaying a subset of the supported MedTech service metrics. By default, the Show data for last option is set to 1 hour. To adjust the time duration, select the Show data for last option, select the time period you would like to view, and select Apply. Select the down arrow in the Traffic MedTech service metrics tile to display the next set of MedTech service traffic metrics.

    Important

    If you leave the MedTech service monitoring tab, any customized settings you have made to the monitoring settings are lost and will have to be recreated. If you would like to save your customizations for future viewing, you can pin them to an Azure portal dashboard as a tile.

    To learn how to customize and save metrics settings to an Azure portal dashboard and tile, see How to configure the MedTech service metrics.

  4. Optional - Select the pin icon to save the metrics tile to an Azure portal dashboard of your choosing.
