Overview

The alert center on the obshell Dashboard allows you to centrally manage and monitor alert events in OceanBase clusters. You can view alert events, set up alert suppression, and configure alert rules to promptly respond to and handle exceptions, ensuring system stability.

Access path

After you log in to the obshell console, enter the Alertmanager address, username, and password, and click Enable to go to the Alert Center page. You can use an existing Alertmanager address to enable the Alert Center. If you have not deployed one, we recommend that you use obd to install and deploy it. In the upper part of the Alert Center page, click Alert Events, Alert Shielding, or Alert Rules to go to the corresponding tab.
