AZ104-Q: suppress planned-maintenance noise
During a scheduled maintenance window, a team wants existing alerts muted without deleting alert rules. What should it use?
- A) Disable Azure Monitor permanently.
- B) Remove all action groups.
- C) An alert processing rule scoped to the affected alerts and time window. ✓
- D) A CanNotDelete lock. Answer: C. Alert processing rules can suppress or route alert notifications under defined conditions. Why not the others: Disabling monitoring or removing recipients loses normal protection; locks are unrelated.
