Huawei Cloud ECS

Collect Huawei Cloud ECS monitoring metrics

Configuration

Install Func

It is recommended to activate Guance integration - extensions - DataFlux Func (Automata): all prerequisites are automatically installed, please proceed with script installation.

If deploying Func manually, refer to Manual Func Deployment

Install Script

Note: Please prepare the Huawei Cloud AK in advance (for simplicity, you can directly grant global read-only permissions Tenant Guest)

Automated Script Activation

  1. Log in to the Guance console
  2. Click the 【Integration】 menu, select 【Cloud Account Management】
  3. Click 【Add Cloud Account】, select 【Huawei Cloud】, and fill in the required information on the interface. If the cloud account information has been configured before, ignore this step
  4. Click 【Test】, and after a successful test, click 【Save】. If the test fails, please check the relevant configuration information and retest
  5. Click 【Cloud Account Management】 list to see the added cloud account, click the corresponding cloud account to enter the details page
  6. Click the 【Integration】 button on the cloud account details page, find Huawei Cloud ECS under the Not Installed list, and click the 【Install】 button to pop up the installation interface and install.

Manual Script Activation

  1. Log in to the Func console, click 【Script Market】, enter the Guance script market, search for integration_huaweicloud_ecs

  2. Click 【Install】, then enter the corresponding parameters: Huawei Cloud AK, SK, and account name

  3. Click 【Deploy Startup Script】, the system will automatically create the Startup script set and automatically configure the corresponding startup script

  4. After activation, you can see the corresponding automatic trigger configuration in 「Management / Automatic Trigger Configuration」. Click 【Execute】 to execute it immediately without waiting for the scheduled time. Wait a moment, you can view the execution task record and corresponding logs

Verification

  1. In 「Management / Automatic Trigger Configuration」, confirm whether the corresponding task has the corresponding automatic trigger configuration, and you can also check the corresponding task record and logs to check for any abnormalities
  2. In Guance, 「Infrastructure - Resource Catalog」, check if there is asset information
  3. In Guance, 「Metrics」, check if there is corresponding monitoring data

Metrics

Configure Huawei Cloud ECS metrics, you can collect more metrics through configuration Huawei Cloud ECS Metric Details

Metric ID Metric Name Metric Description Value Range Measurement Object (Dimensions) Monitoring Period (Original Metric)
cpu_usage CPU Usage This metric is used to count the current CPU usage of the measurement object. Unit: Percentage. 0-100% Cloud Server 1 minute
load_average1 1 Minute Load Average This metric is used to count the CPU load average of the measurement object over the past 1 minute. ≥ 0% Cloud Server 1 minute
load_average5 5 Minute Load Average This metric is used to count the CPU load average of the measurement object over the past 5 minutes. ≥ 0% Cloud Server 1 minute
load_average15 15 Minute Load Average This metric is used to count the CPU load average of the measurement object over the past 15 minutes. ≥ 0 Byte/s Cloud Server 1 minute
mem_usedPercent Memory Usage Rate This metric is used to count the memory usage rate of the measurement object. Unit: Percentage 0-100% Cloud Server 1 minute
net_bitSent Inbound Bandwidth This metric is used to count the number of bits received per second by the network card of the measurement object. Unit: bit/s ≥ 0 bit/s Cloud Server 1 minute
net_bitRecv Outbound Bandwidth This metric is used to count the number of bits sent per second by the network card of the measurement object. Unit: bit/s ≥ 0 bit/s Cloud Server 1 minute
net_packetSent Network Packet Send Rate This metric is used to count the number of packets sent per second by the network card of the measurement object. Unit: Counts/s ≥ 0 Counts/s Cloud Server 1 minute
net_packetRecv Network Packet Receive Rate This metric is used to count the number of packets received per second by the network card of the measurement object. Unit: Counts/s ≥ 0 Counts/s Cloud Server 1 minute
net_tcp_established TCP ESTABLISHED This metric is used to count the number of TCP connections in the ESTABLISHED state of the measurement object. Unit: Count ≥ 0 Cloud Server 1 minute
net_tcp_total TCP TOTAL This metric is used to count the total number of TCP connections in all states of the measurement object. Unit: Count ≥ 0 Cloud Server 1 minute
disk_usedPercent Disk Usage Rate This metric is used to count the disk usage rate of the measurement object, in percentage. Calculation method: used disk storage / total disk storage. Unit: Percentage 0-100% Cloud Server - Mount Point 1 minute
disk_free Free Disk Space This metric is used to count the remaining disk space of the measurement object. Unit: GB ≥0 GB Cloud Server - Mount Point 1 minute
disk_ioUtils Disk I/O Usage Rate This metric is used to count the disk I/O usage rate of the measurement object. Unit: Percentage 0-100% Cloud Server - Disk Cloud Server - Mount Point 1 minute
disk_inodes_UsedPercent inode Usage Rate This metric is used to count the used inode percentage of the current disk of the measurement object. Unit: Percentage 0-100% Cloud Server - Mount Point 1 minute
