View slow logs

Background

ApsaraDB for Redis uses slow logs to record requests that are run for a long time. If a command is run for a longer time than the threshold specified by the slowlog-log-slower-than parameter (in microseconds), the command is recorded in a slow log. In ApsaraDB for Redis, the default value of the slowlog-log-slower-than parameter is 10,000 μs, that is, 10 ms.

The slowlog-max-len parameter specifies the maximum number of slow logs stored by an ApsaraDB for Redis instance. By default, an ApsaraDB for Redis instance stores 128 slow logs.

To view slow logs of an instance, you can log on to the ApsaraDB for Redis console and choose Logs > Slow Logs from the left-side navigation pane.
