The correct answer is C. Azure Monitor action groups.

Azure Monitor is a built-in monitoring service in Azure that provides a comprehensive solution for collecting, analyzing, and acting on telemetry from applications and infrastructure. Azure Monitor allows you to monitor the performance and availability of your applications, virtual machines, and other Azure resources.

Azure Monitor provides alerting capabilities that enable you to get notified when important events occur in your Azure environment. You can create alerts based on metrics, logs, and activity logs. When an alert is triggered, you can take actions automatically by using an action group.

An action group is a collection of notification preferences and actions that are used by Azure Monitor and other Azure services to send notifications when an alert is triggered. An action group can contain one or more notification preferences such as email, SMS, voice, or push notifications, and one or more actions such as running an Azure Automation runbook, starting a Logic App workflow, or invoking a webhook.

To apply alerts automatically when new subscriptions are added to an Enterprise Agreement, you can create an action group that includes the necessary notification preferences and actions. Then, you can associate the action group with the Enterprise Agreement. This way, any new subscription that is added to the Enterprise Agreement will automatically inherit the alerting configuration.

Option A (Azure Automation runbooks) is incorrect because Azure Automation runbooks are used to automate the management and deployment of resources in Azure. While runbooks can be used to perform actions in response to an alert, they are not used to apply alerts automatically to new subscriptions.

Option B (Azure Log Analytics alerts) is incorrect because Azure Log Analytics alerts are used to monitor log data from various sources and trigger an alert when specific conditions are met. While Log Analytics alerts can be used in combination with Azure Monitor, they are not used to apply alerts automatically to new subscriptions.

Option D (Azure Resource Manager templates) is incorrect because Azure Resource Manager templates are used to deploy and manage resources in Azure. While templates can be used to deploy Azure Monitor and create alert rules, they are not used to apply alerts automatically to new subscriptions.

Option E (Azure Policy) is incorrect because Azure Policy is used to enforce organizational standards and compliance. While policies can be used to enforce specific alert rules and configurations, they are not used to apply alerts automatically to new subscriptions.
