Monitoring Metrics

Overview

This section describes the namespace, list, and measurement dimensions of metrics of global EIPs and global internet bandwidths that you can check on Cloud Eye. You can use APIs or the Cloud Eye console to query the metrics of the monitored metrics and generated alarms.

  • Currently, global connection bandwidths do not support monitoring data reporting and have no monitoring metrics.
  • If a bandwidth is increased or decreased, there is a delay of 5 to 10 minutes for the monitoring metrics to update for the new bandwidth.
  • Cloud Eye can monitor dimensions nested to a maximum depth of four levels (levels 0 to 3). 3 is the deepest level. For example, if the monitored dimension of a metric is resourceA_id,resourceB_id, resourceA_id indicates level 0 and resourceB_id indicates level 1.
