Viewing metrics in Monium Metrics

1. On the Monium home page, select Metrics on the left.

2. At the top, set the data search period on the timeline.

3. To search for application metrics, enter the following in the query string:

   • project = <project_ID>: Select the project specified in x-monium-project of the application's telemetry transmission configuration.

     This may be a cloud (cloud__<cloud_ID>) project, folder (folder__<folder_ID>) project, or another project.

   • cluster = <cluster_name>: Select the name of the installation that runs your application. If no cluster is specified, cluster = default is used.

   • service = <service_name>: Name of your application or service. You can use the OTEL_SERVICE_NAME environment variable to provide it.

     If you do not see the required labels in the suggestions, you can enter them manually. However, the system most likely has not received data with these labels. See Data delivery troubleshooting for possible solutions.

4. To search for Yandex Cloud resource metrics, enter the following in the query string:

   • project = folder__<folder_ID>: ID of the folder the Yandex Cloud resource resides in.
   • cluster = default.
   • service = <__service_name__>, e.g., __application-load-balancer__, __cdn__, or __iam__.
   • Labels of the resource. For example, for Identity and Access Management, you can specify a service account: service_account = <service_account_name>.

5. To view all available labels for a query you have already entered, click in the query bar controls on the right. If you do not see the label in the list, it means that its values were not transferred to the system or have already been deleted due to TTL expiration. You can enter a label manually, but the chart will not be displayed.

   You can select metrics and labels with your cursor from the drop-down lists in the query string or by typing the first letters of the label name.

   To view query string hotkey tooltips, click Cmd/Ctrl + Enter.

6. Click Execute.

7. To visualize a modified metric on the chart, select functions in .

8. To display another metric on the chart, click Add query and enter the metric and label values.

9. To temporarily hide charts for specific labels, select Pivot table at the bottom and disable the charts you do not need.

10. To view metric values in a table, select Raw data at the bottom.

• At the top of the Metrics section, click:
  • Last hour to set the date and time in the drop-down list.
  • < or > to move one hour forward or backward on the timescale.
  • 1h, 1d, 1w, or 1M to show metrics for the last hour, day, week, or month, respectively, on the chart. In the field next to it, you can specify your own time interval, e.g., 15m.

   3. Normalize: To normalize all data to a range from 0% to 100%.

   4. Interpolation: To set a method of filling the data gap between two points, such as linear interpolation, forward fill, or backward fill.

4. Under Left Y axis and Right Y axis, set the title, scale, minimum and maximum values, units, and the number of decimal places.
5. Under Downsampling, configure the read data aggregation option.
6. Under Thresholds, specify one or more values. Based on these, straight lines will be drawn on your chart to help you easily detect any metrics with values above or below thresholds. You can customize the color for each line or leave the defaults.
