Cloud Config:Check for the average utilization of maximum connections for an SLB instance

Last Updated:Oct 20, 2025

An SLB instance is considered non-compliant if its average utilization of maximum connections is greater than or equal to a specified value for at least 8 hours within a specified period. This rule does not apply to SLB instances that are not connected to CloudMonitor or have no monitoring data. By default, the detection period is the last 7 days. This check uses the CloudMonitor API to retrieve monitoring data and consumes your basic CloudMonitor free quota. For best results, enable Hybrid Cloud Monitoring. For more information about the billing of Hybrid Cloud Monitoring, see Billing of CloudMonitor.
