Azure VM Diagnostic Metric Pruning

This repo has a script that automates mass pruning of old Azure VM Diagnostic Metrics data in Azure Table Storage. Across a fleet of VMs that are running for multiple years, diagnostic metrics can consume significant table storage capacity. This script is targeted at clearing a year's-worth of those metrics at a time for a particular storage account.

I have personally run this against a storage account used by a single VM and cleared almost 300 GB of storage from metrics that I no longer need to store.

Prerequisites:

  1. Tenant ID
  2. Subscription ID
  3. Resource Group Name
  4. Storage Account Name
