Answer 1

Hello Diptesh Kumar,
Thanks for your question.

To notify that a machine is patched, you will need to leverage Azure Monitor/Azure Automation update management. This is achievable through Update management Centre with the help of azure monitor custom log queries

For your second question:
In Azure Service Health, a "fired" event indicates that a specific health event has been detected for an Azure service. They can be informational or alert driven
