14 Creating Alarms and Dashboards in OCI

This chapter provides information on how to create alarms and dashboards in OCI.

14.1 Creating Alarms

For information on how to configure alarms in OCI, see the "OCNADD on OCI"section.

14.2 Creating Dashboards

On OCI, similar dashboards can be created using the Terraform scripts provided in <release-name>/custom-templates/oci/terraform. Once the stack is run successfully, dashboards will be automatically created under the Logging Analytics section on OCI UI. Users with view permissions can view these dashboards.

The following dashboards are available on OCI:

  • Operational: This dashboard will provide visualizations for various MPS and Latency-related KPIs in the Data Director.
  • KPIs: This dashboard will provide visualizations for KPIs related to the traffic processed by the Data Director.
  • Resource Utilization: This dashboard will provide visualizations for KPIs related to resource utilization and service status of various Data Director microservices.

To import the dashboards in OCI, follow these steps:

  1. Log in to the OCI console.
  2. Click Hamburger menu and select Developer Services.
  3. Under Developer Services, select Resource Manager.
  4. Under Resource Manager, select Stacks.
  5. Click Create stack button.
  6. Select the default My Configuration radio button.
  7. Under Stack configuration, click on the folder radio button and upload the Terraform package <release-name>/custom-templates/oci/terraform.
  8. Enter the Name and Description and select the compartment.
  9. Click on Next and provide values for the requested parameters.

Note:

Alarms, notifications, and dashboards on OCI are created using the same set of Terraform folders.
