Creating a Resource Group

Scenarios

If you use multiple cloud services, you can add all related resources, such as ECSs, BMSs, EVS disks, elastic IP addresses, bandwidths, and databases to the same resource group for easier management and O&M.

Restrictions

• Each user can create up to 1,000 resource groups.
• A resource group must contain 1 to 1,000 cloud service resources.
• There are restrictions on the number of resources of different types that can be added to a resource group. For details, see the tips on the Cloud Eye console.

Procedure

1. Log in to the management console.
2. In the upper left corner, select a region and project.
3. Click Service List in the upper left corner and select Cloud Eye.
4. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Resource Groups.
5. In the upper right corner, click Create Resource Group.
6. Enter a group name and set parameters as needed.
   1. If you select Manually for Add Resources, select resources for the resource group.
      Figure 1 Manually adding resources
      
      

      You can search for ECSs and BMSs by name, ID, and private IP address. For other cloud services, you can search only by name and ID.

   2. If you select Automatically for Add Resources, select From enterprise project or By tag for Synchronize Resources.
      1. If you select From enterprise project for Synchronize Resources, select one or more enterprise projects. The resources in the resource group will automatically be synchronized with those in the enterprise project. To manage resources in this resource group, you can only add or remove resources to and from the enterprise project.

      2. If you select By tag for Synchronize Resources, select tags.

         • If you enter multiple tags, the relationship between different keys is AND, and the relationship between values of the same key is OR.
         • You can add up to 10 tags.
7. Select an enterprise project.
