Scenarios
Cloud Eye is a multi-dimensional resource monitoring service. You can use Cloud Eye to monitor ELB resources in real time, set alarm rules, identify resource exceptions, and quickly respond to resource changes.
Cloud Eye is enabled automatically after you create a load balancer. For more information about Cloud Eye, see What Is Cloud Eye?
Setting an Alarm Rule
You can set alarm rules on the Cloud Eye console to send you notifications in case of exceptions.
For details about how to set alarm rules, see Creating an Alarm Rule.
