Adding a Graph

After you create a dashboard, you can add up to 50 graphs to it to monitor cloud services.

You can add up to 50 metrics, regardless of the services and dimensions, to one graph.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. Choose Service List > Cloud Eye.
  1. Choose My Dashboards > Custom Dashboards and click the name of the dashboard to which you want to add a graph. On the displayed page, click Create > Create Graph or Create Graph Group.

    You can create a graph or a graph group. In this example, click Create Graph.

  2. On the Add Graph page, perform the following operations:
    1. Select a graph type: a bar chart, horizontal bar chart, line chart, table chart, stacked area line chart, or a donut chart.
    2. On the Graph Settings area on the right, select One graph for a single metric or One graph for multiple metrics (only for line charts and stacked area line charts). In this example, select One graph for multiple metrics. Under Graph Group, select an existing group or click Add Graph Group to create one.
    3. Earlier version: In the Monitoring Item Configuration area, set the monitoring scope by selecting resources and metrics, choose how to compare metrics (Same period last week or Same period yesterday), and set Quantity.

      Earlier version: For bar charts, horizontal bar charts, tables chart, and donut charts, set Quantity to any integer from 3 to 10. For line charts and stacked area line charts, set Quantity to any integer from 1 to 200.

      New console: In the Select Metric area, set the metric, monitoring scope (All resources or Specified resources), and whether to enable Aggregation and aggregation rules. Select same period last week or same period yesterday for Compare With, and set the number of records displayed in a graph for the metric.
      • Set the number in Display to any integer from 1 to 50.
      • For the line charts and stacked area line charts, you can determine whether to enable Aggregation. For the bar charts, horizontal bar chart, table charts, and donut charts, Aggregation is enabled by default.
      • If Specific resources is selected for Monitoring Scope, after you select specific resources, information about the resources is displayed. You can set Legend for each resource.
    4. In the upper right corner of Select Metric area, select Left Y axis or Right Y axis. View the configured chart in the Preview area.
