Scale Thresholds¶
Scale Thresholds are pre-configured settings for auto-scaling Instances. When adding auto-scaling to an instance, existing Scale Thresholds can be selected to determine auto-scaling rules.
Creating Scale Thresholds¶
Navigate to Library > Automation > Scale Thresholds
Select + ADD
Populate the following:
- NAME
Name of the Scale Threshold
- AUTO UPSCALE
Enable to automatically upscale per Scale Threshold specifications
- AUTO DOWNSCALE
Enable to automatically downscale per Scale Threshold specifications
- MIN COUNT
Minimum node count for Instance. Auto-scaling will not downscale below MIN COUNT, and will auto upscale if the MIN COUNT is not met)
- MAX COUNT
Maximum node count for Instance. Auto-scaling will not upscale past MAX COUNT, and will auto downscale if MAX COUNT is exceeded.
- ENABLE MEMORY THRESHOLD
Check to set auto-scaling by specified memory utilization threshold (%)
- MIN MEMORY
Enter MIN MEMORY % for triggering downscaling.
- MAX MEMORY
Enter MAX MEMORY % for triggering upscaling.
- ENABLE DISK THRESHOLD
Check to set auto-scaling by specified disk utilization threshold (%)
- MIN DISK
Enter MIN DISK % for triggering downscaling.
- MAX DISK
Enter MAX DISK % for triggering upscaling.
- ENABLE CPU THRESHOLD
Check to set auto-scaling by specified overall CPU utilization threshold (%)
- MIN CPU
Enter MIN CPU % for triggering downscaling.
- MAX CPU
Enter MAX CPU % for triggering upscaling.
