What This Dashboard Monitors

This dashboard tracks essential container metrics to help you:

  • Monitor Resource Utilization: Track CPU and memory usage across all containers
  • Analyze Network Performance: Monitor network traffic patterns and packet loss
  • Track Storage Operations: Analyze disk I/O operations and performance
  • Identify Resource Bottlenecks: Detect containers consuming excessive resources
  • Optimize Container Allocation: Right-size container resource limits and requests
  • Container Health Monitoring: Keep track of overall container performance and availability

Metrics Included

Resource Metrics

  • Container CPU Percent: Shows CPU utilization percentage for each container over time
  • Container Memory Percent: Shows memory utilization percentage for each container over time

Memory Analysis

  • Mem Usage / Mem Limit Table: Shows memory usage (MB) and memory limits (GB) for each container

Network Metrics

  • Network Bytes Received: Shows incoming network traffic in bytes for each container over time
  • Network Bytes Sent: Shows outgoing network traffic in bytes for each container over time
  • Packets Dropped Table: Shows incoming and outgoing packet drop counts for each container

Storage Metrics

  • Block IO Table: Shows block I/O operations (read/write) and throughput for each container

Dashboard Variables

This dashboard includes pre-configured variables for filtering:

  • host.name: Filter by specific host names to view containers on particular hosts
