You have an Azure subscription. You have 100 Azure virtual machines. You need to quickly identify underutilized virtual machines that can have their service tier changed to a less expensive offering. Which blade should you use?
The Advisor dashboard displays personalized recommendations for all your subscriptions. You can apply filters to display recommendations for specific subscriptions and resource types. The recommendations are divided into five categories:
Reliability (formerly called High Availability): To ensure and improve the continuity of your business-critical applications. For more information, see Advisor Reliability recommendations.
Security: To detect threats and vulnerabilities that might lead to security breaches. For more information, see Advisor Security recommendations.
Performance: To improve the speed of your applications. For more information, see Advisor Performance recommendations.
Cost: To optimize and reduce your overall Azure spending. For more information, see Advisor Cost recommendations.
Operational Excellence: To help you achieve process and workflow efficiency, resource manageability and deployment best practices. . For more information, see Advisor Operational Excellence recommendations.
Correct Answer: B
Advisor helps you optimize and reduce your overall Azure spend by identifying idle and underutilized resources. You can get cost recommendations from the Cost tab on the Advisor dashboard.

B. Advisor
Explanation:
Azure Advisor is a personalized cloud consultant that helps you follow best practices to optimize your Azure deployments. It analyzes your resource configuration and usage telemetry and then recommends solutions that can help you improve the cost-effectiveness, performance, high availability, and security of your Azure resources.
With respect to your question, Azure Advisor can provide recommendations for underutilized VMs and suggest ways to reduce costs, for example, by resizing or shutting down underutilized VMs.
B. Advisor blade in Azure can also provide cost recommendations, including recommendations to change service tiers for underutilized virtual machines.
Azure Advisor analyzes your usage data and provides personalized recommendations to optimize your resources, reduce costs, and improve the security and performance of your Azure environment. It can provide recommendations to change the service tier of underutilized virtual machines to a lower tier that better matches their actual resource usage.
Therefore, both the Monitor and Advisor blades can be used to identify underutilized virtual machines that can have their service tier changed to a less expensive offering. The Monitor blade provides real-time utilization data, while the Advisor blade provides personalized recommendations based on historical usage data.
The blade that you should use to quickly identify underutilized virtual machines that can have their service tier changed to a less expensive offering is the "Advisor" blade.
The Advisor blade provides personalized recommendations to optimize and improve the security, performance, and high availability of your resources in Azure. It analyzes your usage and resource configuration data to identify opportunities to reduce costs, improve performance, and increase reliability.
To identify underutilized virtual machines, you can use the "Right-size virtual machines" recommendation in the Advisor blade. This recommendation provides a list of virtual machines that are running with less than 50% average CPU utilization over the past week, and which can potentially have their service tier changed to a less expensive offering.
By using this recommendation, you can quickly identify virtual machines that are underutilized and can potentially save costs by switching to a lower service tier.
