Create an event-triggered task

This topic describes how to create an event-triggered task. If your business workloads are unpredictable or may surge unexpectedly, you can create an event-triggered task. You must specify a metric that is monitored by Cloud Monitor in an event-triggered task. After you create and enable an event-triggered task, Auto Scaling collects data for the specified metric in real time and Cloud Monitor triggers an alert when the specified condition is met. Then, Auto Scaling executes the scaling rule that is associated with the event- triggered task to scale instances in your scaling group.

  1. On the Event -triggered Tasks page, click Create Event -triggered Task. fg-dc-ess-2.6-1
  2. In the Create Event-triggered Task dialog box, configure the parameters. fg-dc-ess-2.6-2
