SUSE OpenStack Cloud Monitoring provides alerting features for monitoring your log data. Specific log metrics support you in checking the severity of the entries in your log files. Log metrics are handled like any other metrics in SUSE OpenStack Cloud Monitoring. They complete the log management features and support you in analyzing and troubleshooting any issue that you encounter in your log data.
Using the log metrics for monitoring corresponds to using any other metrics:
Use Monitoring > Alarm Definitions to create, edit, and delete alarms for log data.
Use Monitoring > Notifications to create, edit, and delete notifications for alarms.
Use Monitoring > Overview to check whether there are any irregularities in your log data. As soon as you have defined an alarm for your log data and metrics data has been received, there is status information displayed on the Overview page.
For details on using the log metrics, refer to Chapter 3, Monitoring.
