Best machine configuration in Azure for probe

Modified on 2025-06-10 16:53:42 +0200

Hi,

I have a probe in Azure that monitors approx 40 servers using some WMI sensors which is generating a lot of CPU consumption.

The configuration is like this:

Standard B4ms vCPUs: 4 RAM: 16 GB

The antivirus even with the inclusion of exceptions is also using a lot of CPU.

Any suggestions for configuring a suggested virtual machine for this kind of need?

Thanks.

Hey,
The configuration looks fine. The only thing is the consumption of the antivirus. Maybe there is an option that you can enable for the consumption of this software.
