We will create a Compute Engine instance with NGINX through the GCP Marketplace, so that we have a URL we can hit with a HTTP request to see if our resource is up and running. It will be referred to later in this codelab as PROJECT_ID.īefore we can enable monitoring, we will need some kind of infrastructure within this Google Cloud Platform project to actually monitor, so let us create that now. Note the project ID you were assigned ( " codelab-test003" in the screenshot above). Here's what you should see once logged in :

Once you have received a temporary username / password to login from the instructor, log into Google Cloud Console. Note that all these accounts will be disabled soon after the codelab is over. The instructor will be sharing with you temporary accounts with existing projects that are already setup so you do not need to worry about enabling billing or any cost associated with running this codelab.

Incidents remain open until the alert policy rules are no longer in violation or until the incident is manually closed. For example, you can create a rule that your web site's average response latency must not exceed five seconds over a period of two minutes.Īn alert occurs when an alert policy's conditions are met, causing an Incident to appear in the Incidents section of the Cloud Monitoring Console. The rules are logical conditions involving metric thresholds and uptime checks. You can use the results of the checks as conditions in your alert policies, so you will be notified if system health is degraded.Īn Alert Policy is a set of rules that determine whether your resources or groups are operating normally. You configure the service to check your system's health by sending requests to your applications, services, or URLs from various locations around the world.
