Connecting Cloud Services to AOM

AOM provides a unified entry for observability analysis of Huawei Cloud services. Through the access center, you can connect cloud services to AOM. Cloud service metrics (such as CPU usage and memory usage) can then be reported to AOM.

Constraints

  • Currently, Prometheus instances for cloud services cannot be created.

Connecting Cloud Services to AOM

  1. Log in to the AOM 2.0 console.
  2. In the navigation pane on the left, ingest cloud service metrics through either of the following entries:

    • Entry 1:
      1. Choose Access Center > Access Center. The Access Center page is displayed. (To switch from the new access center to the old one, click Back to Old Version in the upper right corner.)
      2. Click the cloud service to be connected on the Cloud Services panel.
    • Entry 2:
      1. Choose Prometheus Monitoring > Instances and then click a target Prometheus instance.
      2. In the Unconnected Cloud Services area, click the cloud service to be connected.

    Parameter

    Description

    Select Instance

    Select the Prometheus instance for metric ingestion.

    • Enterprise Project
      • Connecting cloud services on the Cloud Service Connection page under the Prometheus instance details page: By default, the enterprise project here is the same as the enterprise project to which the Prometheus instance for cloud services belongs. This option is grayed and cannot be changed.
      • Connecting cloud services through the access center: Select a required enterprise project from the drop-down list.

        If the existing enterprise projects cannot meet your requirements, create one. For details, see Creating an Enterprise Project.

    • Prometheus Instance
      • Connecting cloud services on the Cloud Service Connection page under the Prometheus instance details page: By default, the value of this parameter is the Prometheus instance selected in 1. This option is grayed and cannot be changed.
      • Connecting cloud services through the access center: By default, the value of this parameter is the Prometheus instance for cloud services under your selected enterprise project. Currently, Prometheus instances for cloud services cannot be created. If needed, ingest cloud service metrics through the new access center. For details, see Connecting Cloud Services to AOM.

    Connect Cloud Service Tags

    You can determine whether to add cloud service tags to metric dimensions. After this function is enabled, tags of cloud service resources will be added to metric dimensions. Tag changes will be synchronized every hour. If the existing tags cannot meet your requirements, click Go to Tag Management Service (TMS) to add tags. For details, see Adding Resource Tags.

  4. Click Connect Now.
