View detailed information about a bare metal instance and monitor performance
Perform this task to view basic information, hardware settings, disk settings, billing, and operation logs for a bare metal instance and monitor bare metal performances.
|
|
To display CPU and memory performance monitoring information, run the SNMP service. For more information about images, see Images in Cloud Service Configuration Guide. If you have deployed the bare metal system, install SNMP as described in "Install and configure the SNMP service when the bare metal service has been deployed." |
To view detailed information about a bare metal instance:
On the top navigation bar, click Cloud Services, and then select Bare Metal from the Compute menu.
Click the name of a bare metal instance to view its information.
Install and configure the SNMP service when the bare metal service has been deployed
Upload the SNMP installation package to the server, and execute the following commands:
yum install net-snmp net-snmp-utils -y
systemctl enable snmpd
sed -i -e "s/^access notConfigGroup\(.*\)systemview\(.*\)/access notConfigGroup\1all\2/g" /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf
sed -i -e "s/^#view all included\(.*\)/view all included\1/g" /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf
sed -i -e "s|^#disk / 10000|disk / 10000|g" /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf
systemctl restart snmpd
View detailed information about a bare metal node
On the top navigation bar, click Resources.
From the left navigation pane, select Bare Metal.
Click the IPMI address of a bare metal node to view its information.
Manage bare metal server power actions
Be careful when you perform this task, because stopping or restarting a bare metal instance will cause service interruption. As a best practice, perform this task when you are sure that the service can be interrupted.
Start, stop, or restart a bare metal instance
On the top navigation bar, click Cloud Services, and then select Bare Metal from the Compute menu.
Select a bare metal instance, and then click Start, Shut Down, or Restart.
Power on, power off, or restart a bare metal node
On the top navigation bar, click Resources.
From the left navigation pane, select Bare Metal.
Select a bare metal node, click Actions, and then select Power On, Power Off, or Power Cycle.
In the dialog box that opens, click OK.
Renew the tenancy for a bare metal instance
On the top navigation bar, click Cloud Services, and then select Bare Metal from the Compute menu.
Click Actions and then select Renew Tenancy in the Actions column for a bare metal instance.
In the dialog box that opens, select a tenancy from the Renew field, and then click OK.
Shorten the tenancy
For a common user, the request for shortening the tenancy must be approved by the organization administrator.
On the top navigation bar, click Cloud Services, and then select Bare Metal from the Compute menu.
Select a bare metal node, click More, and then select Shorten Tenancy in the Actions column for the bare metal node.
Select the expiration time, and then click OK.
Use the console feature
You can access the console of a bare metal node to manage and maintain that bare metal node. UIS 3030 G3 and UIS 4900 G3 servers support this feature. The HDM firmware version of the server must be higher than 1.30.16.
To access the console of a bare metal node:
On the top navigation bar, click Resources.
From the left navigation pane, select Bare Metal.
Select a bare metal compute node, click Actions on the top of the node list, and then select Console.
Mount a disk
On the top navigation bar, click Cloud Services, and then select Bare Metal from the Compute menu.
Click the name of a bare metal instance to view its information.
Click the Disk Settings tab, and then click Attach Disk.
Click Attach in the Actions column for a cloud disk.
Unmount a disk
On the top navigation bar, click Cloud Services, and then select Bare Metal from the Compute menu.
Click the name of a bare metal instance to view its information.
Click the Disk Settings tab.
Click Detach in the Actions column for a cloud disk.
In the dialog box that opens, click OK.
Reclaim a bare metal instance
Perform this task to re-select an operating system and image for a bare metal instance and edit the description.
|
|
For a bare metal server that uses the ARM architecture, you cannot reclaim it in agent deployment mode. As a best practice, create or deploy a bare metal instance. |
To reclaim a bare metal instance:
On the top navigation bar, click Cloud Services, and then select Bare Metal from the Compute menu.
Select a bare metal instance, click Actions on top of the list, and then select Reclaim.
Edit the operating system, image, and description.
Click OK.
|
|
This task will re-create a bare metal instance based on the selected image. All data on the current instance will be cleared and cannot be restored. |
Synchronize the bare metal status
When communication between a bare metal compute node and CloudOS becomes abnormal, the bare metal server on CloudOS is in abnormal state. You can perform this task to restore the bare metal server state. Alternatively, you can log in to the bare metal node to synchronize its status. For more information, see "Bare metal nodes." You cannot synchronize the status of a bare metal node in maintenance state.
On the top navigation bar, click Cloud Services, and then select Bare Metal from the Compute menu.
Click More and then select Synchronize State in the Actions column for a bare metal instance.
In the dialog box that opens, click OK.
Reset fees
Perform this task to clear the history charging records and start a new charging policy. You can clear history charging records and start a new charging policy for a single bare metal instance or multiple bare metal instances in bulk. For a single bare metal instance, you can specify a time point before which the history charging records will be cleared. The system starts a new charging policy from this time point.
|
|
· Only system administrations can reset fees. · You can only reset fees for bare metal instances that have fees. · When you reset fees for a single bare metal instance, the reset time cannot be earlier than the earliest fee record. |
On the top navigation bar, click Cloud Services, and then select Bare Metal from the Compute menu.
Select a bare metal instance, click Actions on top of the list, and then select Reset Fee. To reset fee for multiple bare metal instances, click Reset Fee to the top of the list.
