This topic describes how to view monitoring information for each engine of a Lindorm instance in the Lindorm console and the CloudMonitor console. This information helps you understand the usage of common resources, such as CPU and memory.

View monitoring information in the Lindorm console
If you view the monitoring information in the Lindorm console as a Resource Access Management (RAM) user for the first time, the page that appears may be blank because you do not have the required permissions. In this case, use an Alibaba Cloud account to activate Managed Service for Prometheus. For more information, see Grant permissions to view monitoring information.
The Grafana monitoring service in the Lindorm console is free of charge.
Grant permissions to view monitoring information
Attach the AliyunARMSReadOnlyAccess policy to the RAM user. For more information, see Manage RAM user permissions.
Log on to the ARMS console. In the navigation pane on the left, choose .
Click Activate Now to activate Managed Service for Prometheus.
View monitoring information
Log on to the Lindorm console.
In the upper-left corner of the page, select the region where the instance is deployed.
On the Instances page, click the ID of the target instance or click View Instance Details in the Actions column for the instance.
In the navigation pane on the left, click Instance Monitoring to view the monitoring metrics.
If you want to create a custom Grafana dashboard and ingest Lindorm monitoring data, you can use an HTTP API URL to connect to Grafana or ingest Prometheus data in a self-managed application. For more information, see Use an HTTP API URL to connect to Grafana or ingest Prometheus data in a self-managed application.
Ingesting Prometheus data in a self-managed application is a paid operation. For more information about billing, see Prometheus instance billing.
View monitoring information in the CloudMonitor console
Lindorm uses the cloud service monitoring feature of CloudMonitor to organize and display monitoring data by instance.
Log on to the CloudMonitor console.
In the navigation pane on the left, click Cloud Service Monitoring.
On the Cloud Service Monitoring page, click Lindorm.
In the upper-left corner of the page, select the region where the instance is deployed.
Click the ID of the target instance to view its monitoring metrics.
NoteFor a description of the metrics for a Lindorm instance, see Appendix 1: Cloud service monitoring metrics.
Ingest monitoring data
To ingest data for product monitoring, see Cloud Service Observability to connect Lindorm to Managed Service for Prometheus.
