Hi Community Members,

Can any one suggest what is the best way to monitor Host Availability when Azure AVD’s Autoscaleset is enabled. We have 15 AVD’s out of 10 will be active and 5 will come online and offline based on demand.&nbsp; If we enable Host Availability it is creating false alerts. How can we monitor Availability for hosts which has issue on Active servers.

Hey Malireddyr,

If there’s a way to tell when the scaling will occur and to write some automation around it, you could ingest a MARKED\_FOR\_TERMINATION event on the host entity in Dynatrace so that it won’t raise an availability alert. Details can be found here:&nbsp;[Info events — Dynatrace Docs](https://docs.dynatrace.com/docs/shortlink/event-types-info#marked-for-termination)
