Monitoring and alerting

Configure alert policies

You can configure alert policies for the relevant CloudFS metrics according to your business requirements. When a monitored metric becomes abnormal, the system will send alert notifications in the manner you specify, allowing you to promptly identify abnormal metrics. This article describes how to configure metric alert policies.

Notice

CloudFS has certain performance limitations, such as bandwidth and QPS. It is recommended to configure appropriate alert policies based on your business needs and these limitations to avoid business impact caused by rate limiting.

Prerequisites

For the prerequisites for configuring alert policies, see Create alert policy.

Steps

In the left navigation pane, select Alert Center > Alert Policies.

On the Alert Policies page, click Create alert policy.

On the Create alert policy page, select Resource type as Storage > Big Data File Storage, and configure the alert parameters. The main parameters are described as follows:

tip

CloudFS supports configuring alert policies based on the cache space dimension. For details on other parameters, see Create alert policy.

Parameter	Description
Alarm object
Resource type	Select Big Data File Storage.
Subnamespace	CloudFS supports configuring alert policies based on the cache space dimension.
Resources	Cache space for which alert rules need to be configured. CloudFS supports all cache spaces.
Alarm rules
Metric type	Select the metric type. You can choose single metric or multiple metrics. Select multiple metrics to monitor various resource metrics.
Trigger condition	For details on the monitoring metrics supported by CloudFS, see Metric description. Common trigger conditions are as follows: Average total cache space usage > 60%, sustained for 120 cycles (1 cycle = 1 minute), alert level is Warning, which means the system checks resource metrics every minute. If the average total cache space usage of a resource exceeds 60% for 120 consecutive minutes, an alert of warning level is triggered. It is recommended to set specific trigger conditions based on your actual business situation.

After completing the settings, click Create.
