Enabling Monitoring Center

Prerequisites

You have an account in the admin user group to delegate CCE and its dependent services.

The authorization dialog box is automatically displayed on the Monitoring Center page. After you confirm the authorization, the system automatically completes the authorization. For details about permission types, see Agency Permissions.

Constraints

• The cluster version must be v1.17 or later.
• Before using Monitoring Center, you need to use an account in the admin user group to delegate CCE and its dependent services. After the authorization is complete, users with the CCE Administrator role or CCE FullAccess permission can perform all operations on Monitoring Center. Users with the CCE ReadOnlyAccess permission can view all resource information but cannot perform any operations.
• Self-built Prometheus or the Prometheus add-on (Prometheus) is not installed in the cluster.

Enabling Monitoring Center

• Enabling Monitoring Center during cluster purchase
  1. Log in to the CCE console and purchase a cluster.
  2. On the Select Add-on page, select the Cloud Native Cluster Monitoring add-on.
  3. On the Add-on Configuration page, select the AOM instance to be interconnected with the add-on. If there is no access code, create one first.
  4. After the cluster is created, create a node on the Nodes tab. After the node is created, the Cloud Native Cluster Monitoring add-on will be automatically deployed on the node.
• Enabling Monitoring Center on the Monitoring Center page
  1. Click the cluster name to access the cluster console. In the navigation pane, choose Monitoring Center.
  2. Click Enable and select the AOM instance that metrics are reported to.

  3. Wait for 3 to 5 minutes until the monitoring data is reported to the AOM instance.

     The functions of Monitoring Center are available.

• Enabling Monitoring Center on the Add-ons page
  1. Click the cluster name to access the cluster console. In the navigation pane, choose Add-ons.
  2. Select the Cloud Native Cluster Monitoring add-on and click Install.

FAQ

• Failed to enable Monitoring Center because the add-on is abnormal.

  Solution: Go to the Add-ons page to view the list of installed add-ons. Click the name of the Cloud Native Cluster Monitoring add-on to go to its details page. On the Pods tab, view the events of abnormal pods and locate faults based on the error information.

• There is no data on the Monitoring Center page.

  Solution:

  1. Go to the Add-ons page to view the list of installed add-ons. Click the name of the Cloud Native Cluster Monitoring add-on to go to its details page. On the Pods tab, check whether the Prometheus instance is running normally. If the Prometheus instance is not running normally, view the events of pods to obtain the error information.

     For example, if "0/6 nodes are available: 1 Insufficient cpu, 2 node(s) had taint {cie.manage: proxy}, that the pod didn't tolerate, 3 node(s) had taint {node.kubernetes.io/unreachable: }, that the pod didn't tolerate" is displayed, the CPU of one node is insufficient and the remaining five nodes are marked with taints. As a result, pods cannot be scheduled.

  2. If the add-on is normal, you can query the logs of the Prometheus instance and check whether the logs contain error information. Error information related to remote_write indicates that metrics fail to be reported. In this case, check whether the network for reporting the metrics is normal.
