Viewing ECS Details (Tab View)

Scenarios

If you need to perform batch O&M, quickly inspect multiple ECSs, or view the configuration and monitoring information of ECSs in one-stop mode, you can switch to the tab view.

The tab view aggregates instance information in a visualized manner. You can view the basic information, login information, configuration information, and monitoring information of ECSs in one-stop mode without accessing the instance details page. In addition, the tab view provides quick operation entries such as stop, restart, and remote login, and summarizes the instance health status from dimensions such as performance and cost. The tab view effectively improves the efficiency of routine ECS management and O&M.

This section describes how to switch to the tab view to view ECS information.

Constraints

If there is no ECS in the region, the system automatically displays the list view and does not support the switch to the tab view.

Switching to the Tab View

  1. Log in to the ECS console and access the ECS list page.
  2. Switch to the tab view on the ECS list page.
    1. On the right of the search box, click .
    2. Select Tab View for View Switching and click OK.

Viewing ECS Information in Tab View

On the ECS tab of the tab view, click the ECS name to view its basic details, including the login information, ECS information, and monitoring information. For details, see Table 1.

Description

Basic information

Displays the ECS name, ID, billing mode, and status, as well as the navigation paths for operations such as stopping and restarting the ECS and changing the billing mode.

  • Pay-per-use resources: The pay-per-use billing mode is more expensive. If you need to use the resources for a long time, you can change the billing mode to yearly/monthly.
  • Yearly/Monthly resources: The console displays the resource expiration time and provides a renewal link.

Login information

  • Remote Login: provides a remote login entry on the management console.
  • Client-based Login: provides required information for logging in to an ECS through the client, including the EIP, username, and login instructions.

Configuration

Displays the ECS specifications, image, system disk, data disk, private IP address, and EIP, as well as the navigation paths for operations such as modifying specifications and changing the OS.

Monitoring information

Displays ECS running metrics, including the CPU, disk, and network usage. You can select a time range or set a custom range from the drop-down list in the upper left corner of the monitoring information module to view the monitoring graphs of resources within that range.

Overview of monitored data

In tab view, the health status of an ECS is monitored in terms of performance and security. When detecting an error, the system displays the error message and solution.

Switching to the List View

In the tab view, click the list view icon on the right of the ECS tab on the top of the page to switch to the list view.
