Manage groups

OceanBase Cloud Platform (OCP) allows you to classify monitoring charts. You can classify associated metrics into the same group for unified management, thereby facilitating database monitoring and analysis.

Prerequisites

• Make sure that you have the following permissions:
  • Resource Permissions : Cluster Read-only, Tenant Read-only, OBProxy Read-only, Arbitration Service Read-only, Binlog Service Read-only, or Host Read-only permission
  • Menu Permissions : Permission on the All menu of the Monitoring Dashboard
• Dashboards created by different users are mutually isolated. You can view and manage only your own monitoring dashboards.

After you create a dashboard, you can create a group for monitoring charts to be added. The charts in the same group are displayed in the same module.

OCP allows you to create a group by using the following methods:

• Method 1: Click the icon on the tab of a dashboard and select Add Group from the drop-down list. By default, the newly created group is displayed at the top.
• Method 2: Select a group on the tab of a dashboard, click the icon, and select Add Group from the drop-down list to create a new group below the selected group.

The procedure of Method 1 is described as follows:

1. Log in to the OCP console.

2. In the left-side navigation pane, click Monitoring Dashboards.

3. Go to the tab of the dashboard for which charts are to be added. Click the icon next to Add Chart and select Add Group from the drop-down list.

4. Go to the tab of the dashboard for which charts are to be added. Click the Add icon and select Add Group from the drop-down list.

5. Specify a name for the group.

   After the group is added, all groups in the dashboard are displayed in the right-side navigation pane. You can quickly switch between groups.
