Google Compute Engine (GCE) metrics
Google Compute Engine (GCE) is an Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) offering that allows you to run virtual machines (VMs) in the Google infrastructure. GCE provides scalable, secure, and high-performance compute resources for a wide variety of workloads. Ensure your cloud platform is configured in SolarWinds Observability SaaS to collect this service's data. See Add a GCP cloud account.
Many of the collected metrics from GCE entities are displayed as widgets in SolarWinds Observability explorers; additional metrics may be collected and available in the Metrics Explorer. You can also create an alert for when an entity's metric value moves out of a specific range. See Entities in SolarWinds Observability SaaS for information about entity types in SolarWinds Observability SaaS.
The following table lists gcp.compute.googleapis.com in the search box.
| Metric | Units | Description |
|---|---|---|
sw.metrics.healthscore |
Percent (%) |
Health score. A health score provides real-time insight into the overall health and performance of your monitored entities. The health score is calculated based on anomalies detected for the entity, alerts triggered for the entity's metrics, and the status of the entity. The health score is displayed as a single numerical value that ranges from a Good (70-100) to Moderate (40-69) to Bad (0-39) distinction. To view the health score for GCE entities in the Metrics Explorer, filter the |
