OCI NLB Backend Sets represent backend server groupings under OCI Network Load Balancers and are discovered as dependent resources for health and traffic visibility.
Use the Oracle Cloud integration to discover and collect metrics against the OCI NLB Backend Sets.
Setup
To set up the Oracle Cloud integration and discover the OCI NLB Backend Sets service, do the following:
- Create an Oracle Cloud (OCI) integration if not available in your installed integrations.
- You can select
OCI NLB Backend Setsduring integration or you can edit the existing integration and selectOCI NLB Backend Sets. - Scan to discover the resources at any time independent of the predefined schedule.
- Once the scan is completed, you can view the OCI NLB Backend Sets resource under Infrastructure > Resources > Oracle Cloud category.
- Create a template. See Create a Template for more information on how to create a template.
- Refer to Assign a Template on how to assign a template to a resource.
