Can we have support for monitoring the EC2 instances #16

Can we have support for monitoring the EC2 instances or the auto scaling group?

omni-lchen commented 7 years ago

This can be easily set up if you follow the instructions, add EC2 metrics to conf/aws_services_metrics.conf, create a zabbix template for all EC2 metrics with the correct format, create a bash wrapper and set up a cron job.

The solution requires the instance id which will change every time it scales out . On Wed, Jul 12, 2017 at 4:13 PM Long Chen notifications@github.com wrote:

You can use this dimension "AutoScalingGroupName" to get the metrics of the group. If you can want to monitor individual instance, I think you need to create a discovery rule for all instance ids in the group.

This is possible and easy to do. I wrote a feature to discover EC2 instances, create the host in Zabbix Server and start monitoring within 3 minutes from running instance.

Would you mind sharing that ??

@maiconbaumx Hey can you share your feature?

@omni-lchen Even our Autoscalinggroupname changes whenever we create new stack for application servers. Only thing that remains same is the Instance Name. Not sure if that will help.
