Data Transmission Service:Subscribe to event notifications

Last Updated:Sep 13, 2024

Data Transmission Service (DTS) is integrated with CloudMonitor. You can use the event subscription feature of CloudMonitor to configure custom alert notifications for important events. This allows you to learn about the occurrence and progress of events at the earliest opportunity and helps you quickly analyze and troubleshoot issues when business exceptions occur.

Background information

CloudMonitor is a service that monitors Internet applications and Alibaba Cloud resources. You can configure CloudMonitor to notify you of system anomalies. Then, you can automate the anomaly handling process based on alert notifications. CloudMonitor supports the following alert notification methods:

  • Sends alert notifications to you by using emails, text messages, or DingTalk chatbots.

  • Push events to Simple Message Queue (formerly MNS), Function Compute, Simple Log Service, or the specified callback URL. This allows you to automate the anomaly handling process based on your business requirements.

Prerequisites

  • ApsaraDB Fault or Maintenance Notifications is enabled and a contact is specified in the Message Center console. We recommend that you specify an O&M engineer as the contact.

  • Alert contacts and alert groups are created and the alert contacts are added to the alert groups. For more information, see Create an alert contact or alert contact group.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the CloudMonitor console.

  2. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Event Center > Event Subscription.

    Note

    If you do not have an Event Subscription page, please refer to Configure alert rules for DTS tasks in the CloudMonitor console for relevant operations.

  3. On the Subscription Policy tab, click Create a subscription policy.

  4. On the Create a subscription policy page, configure the parameters.

    • If you select System events as the subscription type, you must select Data Transmission Service (DTS) from the Products drop-down list in the Subscription Scope section.

      Note

      For information about the supported system events of DTS, see DTS system events.

    • If you select Threshold Events as the subscription type, you must select one or more DTS task type from the Product classification drop-down list base on your business requirements.

    Configure other parameters based on your business requirements. For more information, see the Subscription policy parameters section of the "Manage event subscription policies" topic.

  5. Click Submit.
