Viewing Monitoring Metrics of a FlexusL Instance

Scenarios

Cloud Eye monitors the cloud servers, EVS disks, and CBR vaults packaged in FlexusL instances. You can clearly view the monitoring metrics of FlexusL instances on the management console. Operations for viewing monitoring data of cloud servers, EVS disks, and CBR vaults are similar. This section shows how to view the metrics of the cloud server in a FlexusL instance.

Prerequisites

  • A FlexusL instance is running properly.

    Cloud Eye does not display the monitoring data for stopped, faulty, or unsubscribed FlexusL instances. After such a FlexusL instance restarts or recovers, its monitoring data will be displayed on the Cloud Eye console.

  • The FlexusL instance has been running for a period of time.

    It takes a period of time to transmit and display the monitoring data. If your FlexusL instance is just created, wait for about 5 to 15 minutes and then view the monitoring data. The server and EVS monitoring data will be displayed in about 5 minutes and the CBR monitoring data will be displayed in about 15 minutes.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the FlexusL console.
  2. Click the target FlexusL resource card.

    Alternatively, enter the instance name, EIP, or server ID in the search box to filter the target FlexusL instance.

  3. Choose Cloud Servers in the navigation pane on the left and click View Monitoring Data.

  4. View basic monitoring metrics.
    • You can click Select Metric to select the monitoring metrics to be displayed.
    • You can view the curves of different metrics in the last 1, 3, or 12 hours, or last 1 or 7 days. You can also specify a time period.
    • You can determine whether to enable Auto Refresh. After this function is enabled, the system automatically refreshes data every 30 seconds.
    • You can determine whether to select Select Data for Comparison to compare the monitoring data in the current specified period with that in the same period on a specified date.

      For example, if you choose 3h, select Select Data for Comparison, and specify the date to August 2, then the monitoring data in the last 3 hours is compared with that in the same period on August 2.

    • You can move the pointer to a metric graph and click to create an alarm rule for the metric.

    • You can move the pointer to a metric graph and click to zoom in the graph.

Related Operations

You can configure alarm rules for FlexusL instances to customize the monitored objects and notification policies. This enables you to learn about the statuses of FlexusL instances and receive notifications if there are any exceptions.
