Scenario

To ensure that cluster parameters, configurations, and monitoring are correct and that the cluster can run stably for a long time, you can perform a health check during routine maintenance.

NOTE:

A system health check includes MRS Manager, service-level, and host-level health checks:

MRS Manager health checks focus on whether the unified management platform can provide management functions.
Service-level health checks focus on whether components can provide services properly.
Host-level health checks focus on whether host indicators are normal.

The system health check includes three types of check items: health status, related alarms, and customized monitoring indicators for each check object. The health check results are not always the same as the Health Status on the portal.
