CloudMonitor:PutResourceMetricRule

Last Updated:Mar 01, 2024

Operation description

This topic provides an example to show how to create a threshold-triggered alert rule for the cpu_total metric of an Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instance whose ID is i-uf6j91r34rnwawoo****. The namespace of ECS is acs_ecs_dashboard. The alert contact group of the alert rule is ECS_Group. The name of the alert rule is test123. The ID of the alert rule is a151cd6023eacee2f0978e03863cc1697c89508****. The statistical method for Critical-level alerts is Average. The comparison operator for Critical-level alerts is GreaterThanOrEqualToThreshold. The threshold for Critical-level alerts is 90. The consecutive number of times for which the metric value meets the trigger condition before a Critical-level alert is triggered is 3.

Debugging

OpenAPI Explorer automatically calculates the signature value. For your convenience, we recommend that you call this operation in OpenAPI Explorer.

ExpressionRawstringNo

The trigger conditions that are created by using expressions. You can use expressions to create trigger conditions in the following scenarios:

  • Set an alert blacklist for specific resources. For example, if you specify $instanceId != 'i-io8kfvcpp7x5****' ``&&`` $Average > 50, no alert is generated even when the average metric value of the i-io8kfvcpp7x5**** instance exceeds 50.
  • Set a special alert threshold for a specified instance in the rule. For example, if you specify $Average > ($instanceId == 'i-io8kfvcpp7x5****'? 80: 50), an alert is triggered when the average metric value of the i-io8kfvcpp7x5**** instance exceeds 80 or the average metric value of other instances exceeds 50.
  • Limits the number of instances whose metric values exceed the threshold. For example, if you specify count($Average > 20) > 3, an alert is triggered only when the number of instances whose average metric value exceeds 20 exceeds three.
$Average > ($instanceId == 'i-io8kfvcpp7x5****'? 80: 50)
