Configuring Cluster Monitoring

You can use Cloud Eye to monitor the created clusters. After configuring the cluster monitoring, you can log in to the Cloud Eye management console to view cluster metrics.

The procedure for configuring cluster monitoring:

  1. Creating Alarm Rules: Customize alarm rules for the monitoring metrics. Once a metric exceeds the threshold, the system will notify you by sending emails or HTTP/HTTPS requests.

  2. Configuring Monitoring Metrics: Configure monitoring metrics for a cluster or a node in the cluster.

  3. Viewing Monitoring Metrics: View the statistics of the monitoring metrics in specific periods.

Prerequisites

  • The cluster is in the Available or Processing status.

  • The cluster has been running properly for more than 10 minutes.

  2. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Alarm Management > Alarm Rules.
