AWS EC2 by HTTP

Overview

The template to monitor AWS EC2 and attached AWS EBS volumes by HTTP via Zabbix that works without any external scripts.
Most of the metrics are collected in one go, thanks to Zabbix bulk data collection. NOTE This template uses the GetMetricData CloudWatch API calls to list and retrieve metrics. For more information, please refer to the (CloudWatch pricing)[https://aws.amazon.com/cloudwatch/pricing/] page.

Additional information about metrics and used API methods:

Requirements

Zabbix version: 7.0 and higher.

Tested versions

This template has been tested on:

  • AWS EC2 by HTTP

Configuration

Zabbix should be configured according to the instructions in the Templates out of the box section.

Setup

The template get AWS EC2 and attached AWS EBS volumes metrics and uses the script item to make HTTP requests to the CloudWatch API.

Before using the template, you need to create an IAM policy with the necessary permissions for the Zabbix role in your AWS account.

Add the following required permissions to your Zabbix IAM policy in order to collect Amazon EC2 metrics.

{
    "Version":"2012-10-17",
    "Statement":[
        {
          "Action":[
              "cloudwatch:Describe*",
              "cloudwatch:Get*",
              "cloudwatch:List*",
              "ec2:Describe*"
          ],
          "Effect":"Allow",
          "Resource":"*"
        }
    ]
  }

For more information, see the EC2 policies on the AWS website.

Set macros "{$AWS.ACCESS.KEY.ID}", "{$AWS.SECRET.ACCESS.KEY}", "{$AWS.REGION}", "{$AWS.EC2.INSTANCE.ID}"

For more information about manage access keys, see official documentation

Also, see the Macros section for a list of macros used for LLD filters.

AWS EC2: Credit CPU: Balance

The number of earned CPU credits that an instance has accrued since it was launched or started. For T2 Standard, the CPUCreditBalance also includes the number of launch credits that have been accrued.

Credits are accrued in the credit balance after they are earned, and removed from the credit balance when they are spent. The credit balance has a maximum limit, determined by the instance size. After the limit is reached, any new credits that are earned are discarded. For T2 Standard, launch credits do not count towards the limit.

The credits in the CPUCreditBalance are available for the instance to spend to burst beyond its baseline CPU utilization.

When an instance is running, credits in the CPUCreditBalance do not expire. When a T3 or T3a instance stops, the CPUCreditBalance value persists for seven days. Thereafter, all accrued credits are lost. When a T2 instance stops, the CPUCreditBalance value does not persist, and all accrued credits are lost.

- The instance is stopped or terminated;

Provisioned IOPS SSD volumes deliver their provisioned performance 99.9 percent of the time.

During a write, if there are no other pending I/O requests in a minute, the metric value will be 100 percent.

Also, a volume's I/O performance may become degraded temporarily due to an action you have taken (for example, creating a snapshot of a volume during peak usage, running the volume on a non-EBS-optimized instance, or accessing data on the volume for the first time).

The total amount of read and write operations (normalized to 256K capacity units) consumed in a specified period of time.

I/O operations that are smaller than 256K each count as 1 consumed IOPS. I/O operations that are larger than 256K are counted in 256K capacity units.

For example, a 1024K I/O would count as 4 consumed IOPS.
