Azure Troubleshooting Skill

General Guidance

Always use tool-based queries first to fetch logs, metrics, and diagnostic data.
Only fall back to Azure CLI for deeper or unsupported inspection.

Investigations should:

  1. Use Log Analytics Kusto queries with proper scoping
  2. Use Activity Logs to identify failures
  3. Use metrics when diagnosing performance issues
  4. Provide minimal, targeted remediation advice

Core Services Covered

Virtual Machines

Common issues:

  • Boot failures
  • OS/​disk failures
  • NIC/​IP misconfiguration

Investigations:

  • Inspect boot diagnostics logs
  • Query Heartbeat table for VM status
  • Check Activity Logs for failed start/​stop operations

AKSS

Common issues:

  • Pod scheduling failures
  • Node pressure
  • Image pull errors (ACR auth)
  • Container crashes

Investigations:

  • Query KubeEvents
  • Query KubePodInventory
  • Inspect ContainerLog

Azure Container Registry (ACR))

Common issues:

  • Permission denied (RBAC)
  • Token expiration

Investigations:

  • Query Activity Logs for push/​write or pull/​read failures
  • Check repository event logs

Storage Accountss

Common issues:

  • Firewall-restricted access
  • SAS token expiration
  • Object not found

Investigations:

  • Query StorageBlobLogs
  • Validate configuration + permissions

Log Analytics

Best practices:

  • Always filter by _ResourceId
  • Narrow time range
  • Query only the tables relevant to the service

Workflow

  1. Identify target service
