Using Resource Groups

Scenarios

• Resource Management

  If you use multiple cloud services, you can add all related resources, such as ECSs, BMSs, EVS disks, elastic IP addresses, bandwidths, and databases to the same resource group for easier management and O&M.

• Routine Inspection and Quick Fault Locating

  On the details page of a resource group, you can view the resource overview, unhealthy resources, alarm rules, and alarm records. This feature helps you view cloud resource usage and quickly locate faulty resources.

Functions

• Resource groups enable you to manage your cloud resources across products.
• The unhealthy resource list enables you to quickly locate faults.
• The alarm records help you track the overall service status.
