Metric Monitoring

The Metric Monitoring page displays metric data of each resource. You can monitor metric values and trends in real time, and create threshold rules for desired metrics. In this way, you can monitor services in real time and perform data correlation analysis.

Procedure

  1. In the navigation pane, choose Monitoring > Metric Monitoring.
  2. Select metrics.
