Information about the requested update

module: Run Docker containers with Azure Container Instances unit: Exercise - Troubleshoot Azure Container Instances url: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/modules/run-docker-with-azure-container-instances/6-troubleshoot-aci section: Monitor CPU and memory usage on your container

The az monitor metrics list commands don't seem to work as advertised (in the training unit) since they do not display CPU or memory values.

CONTAINER_ID=$(az container show --resource-group learn-deploy-aci-rg --name aci-demo-files --query id --output tsv)

yourname [ ~ ]$ az monitor metrics list --resource $CONTAINER_ID --metrics CPUUsage
