Click a component card, then click the Preview tab.

The Preview tab shows the MySQL Overview dashboard with metric cards (Uptime, Current QPS, InnoDB Buffer Pool Size) and time-series charts: MySQL Connections, MySQL Client Thread Activity, Table Locks, MySQL Questions, MySQL Thread Cache, MySQL Temporary Objects, MySQL Select Types, and Sorts.

Collected metrics

Click a component card, then click the Collected Metrics tab to view metrics ARMS collects for each environment.

Switch between Container Service Environment, ECS (VPC), and Cloud Service to view the corresponding metrics table with columns for metric name, description, group, type, and unit.

Alert rule templates

Click a component card, then click the Alert Rule Template tab to view alert rule templates for each environment.

For MySQL in a Container Service Environment, eight default alert rules are provided: MySQLNotReady, MySQLOutOfSync, MySQLDonorFallingBehind, MySQLReplicationNotRunning, MySQLReplicationLag, MySQLHeartbeatLag, MySQLInnoDBLogWaits, and MySQLDown. The list shows Severity, Alert Rule Name/ID, Alert Group, and Template columns. Most rules belong to the Common alert group, using variables such as {{$labels.job}}, {{$labels.instance}}, and {{$value}}.
