3. Alert Notifications
You can receive an alert based
on monitoring metrics for your
Azure services. An alert
rule enables you to monitor a
Azure service based on a metric
value. When the value of a
specified metric violates the
threshold assigned for a rule,
the alert rule becomes active
and registers an alert.

You can receive alerts based on your Cloud Service Monitoring

metric you choose reaches a value that you specify. You can also
choose to have email sent when the alert is triggered.
To add metrics to the metrics table:

addition, you can choose individual roles to display data
for.
