This section provides a detailed introduction to the operating scenarios and steps for creating an alarm rule.

Application Scenarios

Cloud Eye supports the flexible creation of alarm rules. You can customize alarm rules for monitoring indicators of a specific backup repository based on actual needs, and use alarm templates to batch-create alarm rules for multiple resources or cloud services.

Cloud Eye not only allows monitoring of repository indicators but also provides event monitoring for your use.

The event monitoring supported by Cloud Server Backup Service (CSBS) is shown in the table below:

Service	Dimension	Monitoring Event
CSBS	ECS	CSBS creation failed
CSBS	ECS	CSBS deletion failed
CSBS	ECS	CSBS restoration failed

Procedure

Log in to the Console .
Click in the upper left corner of the Console page and select the region.
Select Management and Deployment , click Cloud Eye and go to the Monitoring Overview page.
Click the Alarm Service dropdown menu, then click Alarm Rule to enter the Alarm Rule List page.
In the Alarm Rule List interface, click the Create Alarm Rule button.
On the Create Alarm Rule page, set parameters according to the interface prompts.
