One-Click Monitoring

One-click monitoring enables you to quickly and easily enable or disable monitoring for cloud service resources. When it is enabled, the alarm rules you selected are added to the alarm rule list. When it is disabled, these alarm rules are deleted from the alarm rule list.

This topic describes how to use the one-click monitoring function to monitor key metrics.

Table 1 describes differences between one-click monitoring and common monitoring.

Monitoring

One-click monitoring

You can quickly set up a basic alarm system by enabling the default key metric and event alarm rules recommended by cloud services.

Advantages: The configuration is simple.

For details about services supported by Cloud Eye, see Cloud Services That Support One-Click Monitoring.

Event Monitoring

Metric Monitoring

Common monitoring

Cloud Eye triggers alarms based on the preset alarm policies. For example, Cloud Eye triggers an alarm if the average CPU usage is 80% or more for five consecutive times within 5 minutes.

Advantages: Alarm policies are flexible and can be configured based on service requirements.

All services supported by Cloud Eye

  • Server Monitoring
  • Cloud Service Monitoring
  • Custom Monitoring

When an event occurs, Cloud Eye triggers alarms based on the alarm policy.

Advantages: The configuration is flexible. Only event alarms are supported.

For details about the supported events, see Events Supported by Event Monitoring.

Scenario

Description

Enabling One-Click Monitoring

You can enable one-click monitoring for a cloud service to automatically create alarm rules.

Modifying an Alarm Rule

You can update, delete, or add alarm policies and set notifications as needed.

Batch Modifying Alarm Notifications

You can modify alarm notifications in batches for alarm rules with one-click monitoring enabled. The changes apply to alarm rules of the selected resource type with one-click monitoring enabled.

Resetting One-Click Monitoring Rules

You can reset the one-click monitoring function to use the default alarm rule settings.

  • If one-click monitoring is disabled, this operation will restore the modified alarm policies and clear the configured notification method.
  • If one-click monitoring is enabled, this operation only restores the modified alarm policies but keeps the notification method.

Disabling One-Click Monitoring

Once one-click monitoring is disabled, the system will automatically delete the corresponding alarm rules from the alarm rule list.

Cloud Services That Support One-Click Monitoring

You can check the cloud services and alarm types supported by one-click monitoring.

Billing

You can configure alarm notifications when one-click monitoring is enabled. Alarm notifications are sent by SMN. They will be billed based on their frequency and message length. For details, see Product Pricing Details.

Constraints

Alarm rules created using the one-click monitoring function monitor all resources in the selected dimension.

Currently, Cloud Eye has been upgraded to the latest version in some regions. In the new version, the alarm menus have been integrated. This section describes how to enable one-click monitoring on the console of the new version.

  • One-click monitoring entry on the console of the new version: Alarm Management > Rule Settings > One-Click Monitoring
