3. On the Instance Details page, click the Alert Rules tab.

4. Click Create Alert Rule.

5. In the Create Alert Rule panel, set the parameters for the alert rule, and click Next.

   Parameter	Description
   Metric	Select the metric to monitor. Available options: online devices upstream and downstream message TPS message forwarding TPS time-series data storage read IOPS time-series data storage write IOPS time-series data storage space data processing unit offline data storage space
   Rule name	Enter a name for the rule.
   Statistical fields	Select Count.
   Operator	Select an operator. Available options: >=, >, <=, <, or !=. Day-on-day increase or decrease (%). Week-on-week increase or decrease (%). Period-over-period increase or decrease (%).

   Period	The interval at which the metric is evaluated. Options: 1 minute and 5 minutes.

   For example, if you set the Period to 1 minute, the Threshold to >50, and the Evaluation periods to 3, an alert is triggered if the number of online devices exceeds 50 for three consecutive minutes.

6. Configure alert notifications and click Confirm.
