TNC-P overview

It is the starting point for IBM® Telco Network Cloud Manager - Performance infrastructure monitoring that can pin point the problem detection and root cause analytics.

The following are the benefits of the widgets in the TNC-P overview dashboard:
  • Status of the Pods, Persistent Volume Claims, CPU, memory, and top five Pods that are restarted maximum number of times in the selected cluster and namespace for the specific time period.
  • Node readiness for the selected time period.
  • CPU and memory usage trends for the selected time period.

  1. Click TNC-P monitoring > Platform > TNC-P overview.

    This dashboard displays all the cloud components and the specific metrics and their trends.

  2. From the filter options, choose the Cluster, Namespace, and Time period.
    • Select the cluster that you want to observe from the Cluster filter.
    • Select the namespace from the Namespace filter.
      Note: Currently, tncp namespace alone can be selected.
      Note:
      After you apply Interim Fix2 to your existing environment, you can select your configured namespace from the list. For more information, see
    • From the Time period filter, select any of the following periods.
      • Last hour
      • Last 6 hours
      • Last 12 hours
      • Last 24 hours
      • Last 7 days
      • Last 30 days
