Node View

The node view displays node resource, network, and disk metrics, so you can better monitor a node.

Metric Description

You can view the node metrics in the following tables.

**Table 1** Resource metrics
Metric	Unit	Description
Node CPU Usage	%	CPU usage of a node.
CPU Requests Commitment	%	Total CPU requests/Total CPU of the node
CPU Limits Commitment	%	Total CPU limits/Total CPU of the node
Memory Usage	%	Memory usage of a node.
Memory Requests Commitment	%	Total memory requests/Total memory of the node
Memory Limits Commitment	%	Total memory limits/Total memory of the node
Pod CPU Usage	%	CPU usage of the pod on the node
Used Memory	byte	Memory usage of the pod on the node

**Table 2** Network metrics
Metric	Unit	Description
Network Receive Rate	byte/s	The number of bytes received by the node per second.
Network Transmit Rate	byte/s	The number of bytes sent by the node per second.
Network Receive Rate (Pod)	byte/s	The number of bytes received by the pod on the node per second.
Network Transmit Rate (Pod)	byte/s	The number of bytes sent by the pod on the node per second.
Packet Receive Rate	packet/s	The number of packets received by the pod on the node per second.
Packet Transmit Rate	packet/s	The number of packets sent by the pod on the node per second.
Packet Loss Rate (Receive)	packet/s	The number of packets not received by the pod on the node per second.
Packet Loss Rate (Transmit)	packet/s	The number of packets sent from the pod but not received by the recipient on the node per second.

**Table 3** Disk metrics
Metric	Unit	Description
Node Disk I/O Rate (Read + Write)	N/A	The number of read/write operations on the disk by the pod on the node per second.
Node Disk Throughput (Read + Write)	byte/s	Total number of bytes read from and written to the disk by the pod on the node per second.
