Viewing resources at a cluster view
Use the Dedicated Cloud Compute portal Infrastructure tab to see a cluster view of your dedicated resources for Lumen® Dedicated Cloud Compute. You can view compute resources for each cluster such as hosts and servers. View storage resources for the cluster and view details such as status, server model, and the data stores connected to the cluster. The Utilization tab provides the option to choose specific metrics to view on a host cluster. You can view resources at a data center view or a global view.
Note: To access the Dedicated Cloud Compute portal, you must have a username and password for Managed Services portal.
Overview
To view a list of resources at a cluster view:
- Sign in to the Managed Services portal.
- Using the left navigation, click Infrastructure, then click Overview.
The Dedicated Cloud Compute portal shows the clusters for each data center in your organization.
- Click a cluster name to open the cluster view menu. The left navigation shows a list of hosting nodes and virtual machines associated with each cluster. The Overview tab shows the hosts associated with the cluster you selected.
- Click a hosting node to open the Host tab and view details about the selected hosting node. (Clicking a node in the Overview tab or selecting a node on the Host tab shows the same page view.)
The details page shows the status and history of the hosting node, the CPU, and the RAM. The page also shows the following:
- The Host Info section shows information about the host node such as the name, description, IP address, and tag associated with the node.
- The Host Details section shows details specific to the node including the hosting ports, hypervisor version, porcessors, hosting network interface card (NIC), and hosting peripheral component interconnect (PCI) cards, and any custom properties assigned to the hosting node.
- The Storage section shows the hard drive and lists the data stores associated with the hosting node.
