Cloud Monitoring automatically collects and stores information about your Managed Lustre instance.
This document provides a detailed overview of the metrics available for monitoring Managed Lustre on Google Cloud. These metrics help you understand the performance, capacity, and health of your Managed Lustre file systems, so you can identify bottlenecks, troubleshoot issues, and optimize resource utilization.
You can use these metrics in Cloud Monitoring to create custom dashboards, set up alerts, and gain deeper insights into your Managed Lustre instance's behavior.
Cloud Monitoring is automatically enabled for Managed Lustre. There's no charge for the collection of data or to view metrics in the Google Cloud console. API calls may incur charges; see Cloud Monitoring pricing for pricing details.
