Elastic High Performance Computing:Monitor storage resources

Last Updated:Apr 19, 2024

E-HPC provides the storage resource monitoring feature. This allows you to view the performance and capacity data of storage resources in the E-HPC console and understand the usage of storage resources.

Prerequisites

If you use a RAM user, make sure that the RAM user is granted the permissions to view monitoring metrics of shared storage in the E-HPC console.
