Amazon webservice metrics: not received

nicnictout over 10 years ago

Hello,

i've installed a SIS 11.24 to monitor EC2 cloudwatch, and now i can monitor instance health, but no metrics are reported to Sitescope.

In cloudwatch interface, i am able to see that CPU, network are graphed, and i did'not find anything to explain why in Sitescope i can see these counters, but no data is sent into Sitecope.

Someone alredy have this issue? There is a special parameter to enable on cloudwatch interface to report in SIS?

Thx for your help

Note: i'm not interested in reporting Sitecope metric into cloudwatch

You talk about Amazon WebService monitor (Amazon data -> SiS) or Cloudwatch integration (SiS data -> Amazon)?

Maybe a permissions or configuration issue at Amazon. Check following info so you can check metrics outside SiS:

http://aws.amazon.com/developertools/2534

Amazon CloudWatch Command Line Tool
The Command Line Tool serves as the client interface to the Amazon CloudWatch web service. Use this tool to monitor, manage, and publish Amazon CloudWatch metrics, as well as configure alarm actions based on data from metrics.

Hello Keneth,

many thx, this is a very usefull tool.

I try to play with, and i'm not able to make it work on my sitescope using the CLI directly. I guess this an issue with proxy, i try to add the following environment variable:
SERVICE_JVM_ARGS="-Dhttp.proxyHost=http://my.proxy.com -Dhttp.proxyPort=8080"

without success, i have network or permission denied.

I add the parameter --show-request and copy past it in a browser, and miracle, i can see all metrics in XML format.

Have you any idea of what could goes wrong? This seems to be a proxy side issue, but i'm afraid to see that Sitescope appears to have same trouble to deal with proxies apparently...

There are Proxy settings in the Amazon WS monitor, did you use them?

Hello,

i used the same proxy for browser and in AWS monitor.
Furthermore, i can see region and counters, but no metrics are recieved.

I use an AWS account with full RO rights, and it's working when i used the http request generate by AWS commant tool, so i guess this is not a problem of permissions, but i don't see where issue comes from :(

Hello sorry for delay, i've finnaly challenge this issue.

In order to retrieve data in Sitescope, i had to enable the function "detailed metrics". This is not specified in AWS document, but it's mandatory to allow third application to read cloudwatch metrics
