Reports: Autoscale Monitoring

Overview of the Reports Autoscale Monitoring Dashboard

As a client you can see all your deployments at a glance and their basic status in a number of key areas, primarily autoscale. Likewise as a reseller you can see all your customers deployments. 

To use this feature log into the MyCloudIT (MCIT) portal and navigate to "Reports" then "Autoscale Monitoring". 

If any of the statuses are not as expected we welcome you to reach out to MCIT support. 

The following is an overview of what each section relates to.

"No" here may indicate that the MCIT agent VM is deallocated or the agent requires restarting.
