I created an Application Insights resource, added the Docker monitoring tile and started up a App Insights Docker container on my Docker host with my Instrumentation Key and have metrics and events flowing (as per https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/app-insights-docker/).
I can create alerts for metrics from the Azure Portal and was surprised to see I cannot create alerts for events (at least from the Portal itself). For example, the custom Docker event docker-container-die. My motivation would be to monitor and be alerted when a docker container dies unexpectedly. Am I missing something?
Based on Application Insights Alert not firing for custom Metric, is this use case just not something that App Insights is designed to solve?
Or is it more accurate to say I'd want to turn on Continuous Export and use a web job or something similar to monitor Storage for that event and then do whatever I want from there?
I don't want to twist a tool past its intended purpose, but is tempting since the data is right there.
