Sites within Azure Arc aren't able to have monitoring set up on the site overall. Instead, customers can set up alerts and monitoring for supported resources within a site. Once alerts are set up and triggered depending on the alert criteria, site manager makes the resource alert status visible within the Azure Arc site manager (preview) pages.
