Using detailed monitoring policy

Prev Next

Available in Classic and VPC

NAVER Cloud Platform provides detailed monitoring policies that integrate with Cloud Insight to monitor Object Storage. When you apply a detailed monitoring policy to a bucket, metrics on API requests for that bucket are collected, and you can view them in Cloud Insight. You can also limit the scope of metrics aggregation by configuring the prefixes and suffixes.

  • You can configure up to 1,000 policies per bucket.
  • To configure detailed monitoring policies, you must first subscribe to Cloud Insight. For more information about Cloud Insight, see Services > Management & Governance > Cloud Insight on the NAVER Cloud Platform portal.
  • API request metrics collected through detailed monitoring policies are billed separately from the number of API requests included in Object Storage pricing.

Metric Management interface

The Metric Management interface for detailed monitoring policies includes the following components:

View detailed monitoring policy list

You can view information for each policy in the list of created detailed monitoring policies. To view the information:

Note

You may view the list if you have 1 or more detailed monitoring policies. If there are no detailed monitoring policies, no list appears on the Metric Management interface.

  1. In the NAVER Cloud Platform console, navigate to i_menu > Services > Storage > Object Storage.
  2. Click the Metric Management menu.
  3. When the list of created detailed monitoring policies appears, check the information for each policy.
    objectstorage-use-metric_list_ko
    • Name of the detailed monitoring policy: Name of the detailed monitoring policy.
    • Target bucket:: Target bucket to apply the detailed monitoring policy to.
    • Prefix: Prefix that limits the objects to manage.
    • Suffix: Suffix that limits the objects to manage.

Create detailed monitoring policy

To create a detailed monitoring policy:

  1. In the NAVER Cloud Platform console, navigate to i_menu > Services > Storage > Object Storage.
  2. Click the Metric Management menu.
  3. Click [Create detailed monitoring policy].
  4. Configure the policy when the policy creation popup appears.
    • Policy name: Enter the name of the detailed monitoring policy.
      • Policy names must be unique per bucket and cannot be changed after creation.
    • Target bucket:: Select the bucket where you want to apply the detailed monitoring policy.
      • You can configure up to 1,000 policies per bucket. After a policy is created, you cannot change the target bucket.
    • Prefix/suffix: Enter a prefix or suffix to limit the target objects.
      • Prefix and suffix rules apply to the full object path, including folder and file names.
        Example: When you set "images" as a prefix and "jpg" as a suffix, images/somepath/test101.jpg is included in the aggregation, but images/somepath/test101.png is not.
  5. Click [Create policy].
    • A detailed monitoring policy is added.
Note
  • After you create a detailed monitoring policy, API request metrics are measured every 1 minute and, after an aggregation delay, you can view them in Cloud Insight widgets. For more information about widget creation, see Cloud Insight widget creation guide.
  • There may be a delay before you can view collected metrics in Cloud Insight.
  • You can view bucket metrics (bucket size and number of objects) on the Cloud Insight dashboard, regardless of whether the detailed monitoring policy is enabled. There may be a delay before bucket metrics are reflected.

Edit detailed monitoring policy

You can edit the prefixes and suffixes applied to a detailed monitoring policy. To edit the prefixes and suffixes:

  1. In the NAVER Cloud Platform console, navigate to i_menu > Services > Storage > Object Storage.
  2. Click the Metric Management menu.
  3. Select the policy to edit and click [Edit].
  4. When the policy edit popup appears, edit the prefix and suffix, then click [Edit policy].
    • The changes are applied to the detailed monitoring policy list.
