Creating a Resource Group

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

Constraints

  • You can create up to 1,000 resource groups.
  • Each resource group can contain 1 to 10,000 cloud service resources.
  • You can add limited number of resources of different types to a resource group. For details, see the tips on the Cloud Eye console.
  • After a resource group is created, it takes about three hours for the new resource group rule to be applied.

Creating a Resource Group

  1. Log in to the Cloud Eye console.
  2. In the navigation pane, choose Resource Groups.
  3. In the upper right corner, click Create Resource Group.
  4. On the Create Resource Group page, enter a group name. Select the way you want to add a resource and define resource matching rule as required. Supported cloud services vary with how resources are added. For details, see Cloud Services Supported by Resource Groups.

(Optional) Advanced Configurations

You can configure whether to associate an alarm template and send alarm notifications when creating a resource group or afterward. This streamlines alarm rules management and simplifies alarm rule configuration. For details, see Associating a Resource Group with an Alarm Template.

  1. In the Advanced Settings area, select the template to be associated.
  2. Configure alarm notifications.

    Parameter

    Description

    Enterprise Project

    Enterprise project that the alarm rules belong to. Only users with the enterprise project permissions can manage the alarm rule. For details about how to create an enterprise project, see Creating an Enterprise Project.

    Alarm Notifications

    Whether to send alarm notifications by SMS, emailFunctionGraph (function), FunctionGraph (Workflow), WeCom, DingTalk, Lark, WeLink or HTTP or HTTPS. This parameter is enabled by default.

    Notified By

    Notification method. You can select Notification groups, or Topic subscriptions.

    • Notification groups: You need to create notification recipients and add them to a notification group.
    • Topic subscriptions: You can select a cloud account contact or a custom topic created in SMN.
    NOTE:

    Cloud Eye uses SMN for alarm notifications. If SMN has major delays, the alarm notifications may also be delayed.

    Notification Group

    This parameter is only available if you select Notification groups for Notified By. Select the notification groups to which alarm notifications will be sent. Select or create a notification template and set the notification window. For details about how to create a notification group, see Creating a Recipient and Notification Group.

    Recipient

    Target recipient of alarm notifications. You can select the account contact or a topic name. This parameter is available only if Notified By is set to Topic subscriptions. If there is a display name of a topic, the format is Topic name (display name), and you can search for a topic by name or display name. If no display name is set for a topic, only the topic name will be displayed.

    • Account contact: Enter the phone number and email address of the registered account.
    • Topic: A topic is used to publish messages and subscribe to notifications. If the required topic is unavailable, create one first and subscribe to it. For details, see Creating a Topic and Adding Subscriptions.

    Notification Window

    Time window during which Cloud Eye sends notifications.

    If you set Notification Window to 08:00 to 20:00, Cloud Eye only sends notifications within this period.

    Time Zone

    Time zone for the alarm notification window. By default, it matches the time zone of the client server, but can be manually configured.

    Trigger Condition

    Condition that will trigger an alarm notification. You can select Generated alarm (when an alarm is generated), Cleared alarm (when an alarm is cleared), or both.
