Metrics Dashboard

Overview

Like Cloud Container Servers, all managed servers have access to a Metrics Dashboard. This dashboard allows you to monitor overall server health. This can be useful when diagnosing issues related to your applications and services.

The metrics available for a managed server are similar to those available for Cloud Container Servers, but do not include any container-specific metrics.

Metrics dashboards are only available for managed servers.

Usage

Signing In

To get started, first visit one of your servers in CP. From there, you should see a button labelled Metrics in the top right near your power options. Click on this button to access your dashboard.

Authorization

The system we use to sign you into your account generates an auth token which is valid for a few hours. If your dashboard has been open in you browser for a while, you may start to notice that things aren't loading anymore, or you're getting errors. If this happens, please return to CP and click on the Metrics button again to restore your access.

New Servers

If a server was created recently, there's a chance it won't show up in your dashboard yet. This is normal, and will usually resolve itself within a few minutes once metrics start being pushed through.

You will need to refresh your dashboard page if you had it open prior to creating a new service, otherwise the service may not appear.

Filtering Data

By default, your dashboard will be filtered by whichever server you were viewing in CP when you clicked on the Metrics button.

If you need finer control of these filters, or just want to change what you're looking at from within the dashboard directly, you can use the Server dropdown visible at the top of the page.
