Correct answer: A metric alert on the host pool resource for Available session hosts with condition LessThan 2 over the last 5 minutes., A scheduled query (Log Analytics) alert that calculates ActiveSessions divided by count of session hosts where SessionHostStatus == "Available" from the WVDSessionHost table and triggers when the ratio exceeds 8..
Why this is the answer
To alert on low host availability, a metric alert on the host pool resource for "Available session hosts" is direct and effective. Setting the condition to "LessThan 2" over a short period like 5 minutes immediately flags when the number of available hosts drops critically low. For high user load per available host, a scheduled query (Log Analytics) alert is necessary. Azure Virtual Desktop Insights populates the WVDSessionHost table with session host data. Calculating ActiveSessions divided by the count of available session hosts (SessionHostStatus == "Available") provides the desired ratio. Triggering when this ratio exceeds a threshold, such as 8, indicates high user density. Incorrect options: A metric alert on "Percentage CPU" is a general performance indicator, not a direct measure of user load per available host in the context of AVD session management. An activity log alert for "Stop VM (deallocate)" only captures one specific event that impacts availability, not the overall availability state of the host pool. A scheduled query on "LogicalDisk Free Megabytes" detects disk capacity issues, not user load or host availability.
