Setup Guide

Prerequisites

Build the images

  • Change into the example folder (one-line or step-by-step):
cd .\examples\aks\iis-logmonitor
  • Build the Docker image from the Dockerfile in this folder, tag it for Docker Hub, and push:
# build (run from examples/aks/iis-logmonitor)
docker build -t <dockerhub-username>/iis-logmonitor:latest -f Dockerfile .

# login to Docker Hub (interactive)
docker login

# push
docker push <dockerhub-username>/iis-logmonitor:latest

Create AKS Cluster

Run all this from Powershell

  • az login (if you have multiple subscriptions, make sure you have the right subscription set as default.)
  • cd into ps-scripts
  • Update vars.txt
  • Run ./rg-create.ps1 to create the resource group.
  • Run ./aks-create.ps1 - the script creates an AKS cluster, adds a Windows node pool and connects to the cluster.

Deploy the application

./deploy.ps1

After a few minutes, check the status of the pods

kubectl get pods
NAME                            READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
iislogmonitor-95c488777-fkhgt   1/1     Running   0          2m5s

This indicates the pod started successfully — READY 1/1 and STATUS Running show the container is healthy.

Check the service status and external IP, you should get something similar to:

# NAME            TYPE           CLUSTER-IP    EXTERNAL-IP     PORT(S)        AGE
# kubernetes      ClusterIP      10.0.0.1      <none>          443/TCP        36m
# iislogmonitor   LoadBalancer   10.0.191.38   52.188.177.226  80:31349/TCP   2m19s

Access the app using the http://EXTERNAL-IP shown in the output, for example:http://52.188.177.226

Start-Process "http://52.188.177.226"

To stream the container logs from that pod, run:

kubectl logs -f iislogmonitor-95c488777-fkhgt

Configure Azure Monitor (Container Insights)

You can enable AKS monitoring (Container Insights) from the Azure portal. Open the following onboarding view and follow the steps to enable monitoring for this cluster (select or create a Log Analytics workspace, then enable):

After onboarding completes you can view container logs, metrics and insights in Azure Monitor > Container insights for the cluster.

To query container logs (Log Analytics) for IIS entries you can run a KQL query in the Log Analytics Logs view. Example:

// Find In ContainerLogV2
ContainerLogV2
| where LogMessage contains "W3SVC"

This returns container log entries that include IIS/W3SVC messages collected by Container Insights.

The screenshots below show the Azure Monitor onboarding and Log Analytics views for this example.

Clean-up

Clean up by deleting the resource group, in ps-scripts, run: ./clean-up.ps1
