After you activate CloudMonitor, you can configure alert rules for Classic Load Balancer (CLB) instances in the CloudMonitor console or by calling API operations.
Background information
If a CLB instance or a CLB listener is deleted, the alert rules configured for the CLB instance or listener are also deleted.
Prerequisites
A CLB instance is created, a listener is added to the CLB instance, and health checks are enabled for the CLB instance. For more information, see the following topics:
The service label that is used to configure alert rules for CLB in CloudMonitor is obtained. In this example, the service label is SLB.
The namespace of CLB in CloudMonitor is obtained. In this example, the namespace is
acs_slb_dashboard. For more information about how to obtain the namespace, see DescribeProjectMeta.
Configure alert rules in the CloudMonitor console
Log on to the CLB console.
In the top navigation bar, select the region where the CLB instance resides.
On the Instances page, find the instance that you want to manage and click the
icon in the Monitoring column.In the Monitoring Information panel, click Alert Rules.
On the Alert Rules page of the CloudMonitor console, click Create Alert Rule.
In the Create Alert Rule panel, configure an alert rule. For more information, see Create an alert rule.
