Metric dimensions

For information about what metric dimensions are, see Multi-dimensional metrics.

This service has the following dimensions associated with its metrics.

Dimension Name Description
containerName The name of the container. The name must be between 1 and 63 characters long. It can contain only lowercase letters numbers, and dashes. Dashes can't begin or end the name, and dashes can't be consecutive. The name must be unique in its resource group.

Resource logs

This section lists the types of resource logs you can collect for this service. The section pulls from the list of all resource logs category types supported in Azure Monitor.

Supported resource logs for Microsoft.ContainerInstance/containerGroups

Category Category display name Log table Supports basic log plan Supports ingestion-time transformation Example queries Costs to export
ContainerEvent Container events ContainerEvent

Container Event Customer Logs.

 No No Yes
ContainerInstanceLog Standard output logs ContainerInstanceLog

Container Instance Customer Logs.

 No No Yes

Azure Monitor Logs tables

This section lists the Azure Monitor Logs tables relevant to this service, which are available for query by Log Analytics using Kusto queries. The tables contain resource log data and possibly more depending on what is collected and routed to them.

Container Instances has two table schemas, a legacy schema for Log Analytics and a new schema that supports diagnostic settings. The diagnostic settings feature is in public preview in the Azure portal. You can use either or both schemas at the same time.

Legacy Log Analytics tables

The following _CL tables represent the legacy Log Analytics integration. Users provide the Log Analytics workspace ID and key in the Container Group payload.

Note

Some of the columns in the following list exist only as part of the schema, and don't have any data emitted in logs. These columns are denoted with a description of 'Empty'.

ContainerInstanceLog_CL

Column Type Description
Computer string Empty
ContainerGroup_s string The name of the container group associated with the record
ContainerID_s string A unique identifier for the container associated with the record
ContainerImage_s string The name of the container image associated with the record
Location_s string The location of the resource associated with the record
Message string If applicable, the message from the container
OSType_s string The name of the operating system the container is based on
RawData string Empty
ResourceGroup string Name of the resource group that the record is associated with
Source_s string Name of the logging component, "LoggingAgent"
SubscriptionId string A unique identifier for the subscription that the record is associated with
TimeGenerated datetime Timestamp when the event was generated by the Azure service processing the request corresponding the event
Type string The name of the table
_ResourceId string A unique identifier for the resource that the record is associated with
_SubscriptionId string A unique identifier for the subscription that the record is associated with

ContainerEvent_CL

Column Type Description
Computer string Empty
ContainerGroupInstanceId_g string A unique identifier for the container group associated with the record
ContainerGroup_s string The name of the container group associated with the record
ContainerName_s string The name of the container associated with the record
Count_d real How many times the event has occurred since the last poll
FirstTimestamp_t datetime The timestamp of the first time the event occurred
Location_s string The location of the resource associated with the record
Message string If applicable, the message from the container
OSType_s string The name of the operating system the container is based on
RawData string Empty
Reason_s string Empty
ResourceGroup string The name of the resource group that the record is associated with
SubscriptionId string A unique identifier for the subscription that the record is associated with
TimeGenerated datetime Timestamp when the event was generated by the Azure service processing the request corresponding the event
Type string The name of the table
_ResourceId string A unique identifier for the resource that the record is associated with
_SubscriptionId string A unique identifier for the subscription that the record is associated with

Azure Monitor Log Analytics tables

The newer tables require use of a diagnostic setting to route information to Log Analytics. The diagnostic settings feature for Container Instances in the Azure portal is in public preview. The table names are similar, but without the _CL, and some columns are different.

Once this feature is enabled for a subscription, diagnostic settings can be applied to a container group. Applying diagnostic settings causes a container group to restart.

For example, here's how you can use New-AzDiagnosticSetting command to apply a diagnostic settings object to a container group.

$log = @()
$log += New-AzDiagnosticSettingLogSettingsObject -Enabled $true -Category ContainerInstanceLog -RetentionPolicyDay 7 -RetentionPolicyEnabled $true
 
New-AzDiagnosticSetting -Name test-setting -ResourceId <container-group-resource-id> -WorkspaceId <log-analytics-workspace-id> -Log $log
