Enabling Cluster Monitoring

To enable monitoring for a cluster, you need to install the Cloud Native Cluster Monitoring add-on for metric collection. After cluster monitoring is enabled, cluster metrics are collected and reported to the selected AOM instance.

  • After cluster monitoring is enabled, cluster metrics are reported to the selected AOM instance. Basic metrics are free of charge but custom metrics are charged by AOM. For details, see Pricing Details.
  • Running the Cloud Native Monitoring add-on in a cluster consumes cluster resources. Ensure that there are required cluster resources for installing the add-on. To view resource consumption, go to the add-on details page.

Prerequisites

You have an account in the admin user group to delegate CCE and its dependent services.

The authorization dialog box is automatically displayed on the Monitoring Center page. After you confirm the authorization, the system automatically completes the authorization.

Constraints

Before using Monitoring Center, you need to use an account in the admin user group to delegate CCE and its dependent services. After the authorization is complete, users with the CCE Administrator role or CCE FullAccess permission can perform all operations on Monitoring Center. Users with the CCE ReadOnlyAccess permission can view all resource information but cannot perform any operations.
