Hello Bonifas Robert,

Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum.

 If you suspect that a maintenance activity might have affected your Azure Load Balancer and you want to investigate further, there are several ways to check for maintenance events and gather information. Since you mentioned that you can no longer create a developer support ticket, I can guide you through alternative methods to explore maintenance activities and provide relevant Microsoft documentation.

1. You may check Azure Service Health as it provides information about planned maintenance, service issues, and health advisories for your Azure resources. From Azure portal --> Navigate to Service Health under Monitor --> Filter by your subscription and region to see if there were any planned maintenance events or incidents during the time --> Look for entries related to Load Balancer or Networking. Useful link for related documentation - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/service-health/service-health-overview
2. The Azure Activity Log records all administrative and maintenance activities for your Azure resources. You can use it to check if there were any maintenance activities on your Load Balancer. - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/essentials/activity-log?tabs=powershell
3. The Azure Status page provides a global view of service health and maintenance activities across all Azure regions. You can check the status history for your region. You may check Azure status history by Visiting the Azure Status Page --> Select your region and look for historical events related to Networking or Load Balancer. Useful link to refer - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/service-health/azure-status-overview
4. I understood that you cannot create a developer support ticket, however you may still contact Azure Support through other plans if applicable (e.g., Pay-As-You-Go, Enterprise Agreement, etc.). Azure Support can provide detailed information about maintenance activities and their impact on your resources accordingly.

Hi @Bonifas Robert,

In addition to Suwarna S Kale’s response,
In the Health history, we can see the planned maintenance up to 3 months.

Service Health link to portal:

Kindly let me know if the issue still persists or if they have any additional questions.
