You have an Azure subscription named Subscription1 and an on-premises deployment of Microsoft System Center Service Manager.
Subscription1 contains a virtual machine named VM1.
You need to ensure that an alert is set in Service Manager when the amount of available memory on VM1 is below 10 percent.

A. B. C. D.C
The IT Service Management Connector (ITSMC) allows you to connect Azure and a supported IT Service Management (ITSM) product/service, such as the
Microsoft System Center Service Manager.
With ITSMC, you can create work items in ITSM tool, based on your Azure alerts (metric alerts, Activity Log alerts and Log Analytics alerts).
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/platform/itsmc-overviewThe correct answer is C. Deploy the IT Service Management Connector (ITSM).
Explanation:
In this scenario, the requirement is to set an alert in Service Manager when the amount of available memory on VM1 is below 10 percent. Service Manager is a management tool that provides centralized control of IT services and assets, and it can receive alerts from Azure. To set an alert in Service Manager, we need to deploy the IT Service Management Connector (ITSM).
The ITSM connector provides a way to integrate Azure with Service Manager by enabling the creation of incidents and change requests in Service Manager based on alerts generated in Azure Monitor. The connector is deployed as a virtual machine in Azure and configured to communicate with Service Manager.
Once the ITSM connector is deployed, we can create an Azure Monitor alert rule that triggers an incident in Service Manager when the available memory on VM1 falls below 10 percent. To create the alert rule, follow these steps:
In the Azure portal, navigate to VM1 and select the Monitoring tab.
Click on Alerts and then click New Alert Rule.
Configure the alert rule to trigger when the available memory falls below 10 percent.
In the Actions section of the alert rule, select ITSM and choose the Service Manager connection.
Configure the incident details and save the alert rule.
After creating the alert rule, when the available memory on VM1 falls below 10 percent, an incident will be created in Service Manager. IT staff can then respond to the incident according to the procedures defined in Service Manager.
Option A, Create an automation runbook, is not relevant to the scenario as it does not involve Service Manager or Azure Monitor.
Option B, Deploy a function app, is not relevant to the scenario as it does not involve Service Manager or Azure Monitor.
Option D, Create a notification, is not sufficient to fulfill the requirement as it does not integrate with Service Manager.
