Overview
What Is an Event?
Events are key operations or statuses of a cloud service that are stored and monitored by Cloud Eye. By reviewing these events, you can learn who performed specific actions on which resources at what time, such as VM deletion or restart, along with other resource status changes.
Event Monitoring
You can query system events and custom events reported to Cloud Eye through APIs. You can collect all critical events from your services or operations on cloud resources to Cloud Eye to track the cloud service status. You can also set event alarm rules for these events or operations. When a specified event occurs, Cloud Eye automatically sends an alarm notification. This helps you quickly identify and address issues.
Event monitoring is enabled by default, regardless of whether the Agent is installed.
