Scenarios

This topic describes how to view server monitoring metrics, including fine-grained OS metrics collected by the Agent and basic ECS metrics.

For details, see Services Interconnected with Cloud Eye.

Prerequisites

You have installed the Agent. For details, see Installing and Configuring the Agent on a Linux ECS or BMS and Installing and Configuring the Agent (Windows).

Procedure

1. Log in to the management console.
2. Under Management & Deployment, select Cloud Eye.
3. View ECS or BMS metrics.
   

   For services that support enterprise projects, the system displays, by default, the host list of the enterprise projects on which you have permissions. Enterprise Project is available only in region CN East-Shanghai1.

   • To view OS monitoring metrics of an ECS, choose Elastic Cloud Server, and click View Metric in the Operation column.

   • To view OS monitoring metrics of a BMS, choose Bare Metal Server, and click View Metric in the Operation column.
   • To view processing monitoring metrics, choose Elastic Cloud Server, and click View Metric in the Operation column. On the displayed page, click Process Monitoring.
4. View metrics.

   In the upper part of the OS Monitoring page, different metric types, such as CPU, memory, and disk metrics are displayed.

   View metric graphs based on raw data from the last 1 hour, last 3 hours, last 12 hours, last 1 day, last 7 days, or last 30 days. Cloud Eye provides the Auto Refresh function at 60-second intervals.

5. Hover your mouse over a graph. In the upper right corner, click to enlarge the graph for viewing detailed data.

   In the upper left corner, you can see six default monitoring periods: 1h, 3h, 12h, 1d, 7d, and 30d. To view historical monitoring data for any period during the last six months, customize the monitoring period by setting Select Range in the upper right corner.

6. In the upper left corner of the graph, click Settings to configure the rollup method.
   • If you select 1h, 3h, 12h, or 1d, raw data is displayed by default.
   • If you select 7d or 30d, aggregated data is displayed by default.
   • The GPU metric data in 1h, 3h, 12h, and 1d is the raw data collected in the collection period set in 7.
   • After clicking the zoom in icon in the upper right of an enlarged graph, you can drag the mouse to customize the time range.
