Overview

Amazon EBS provides persistent block storage volumes for use with Amazon EC2 instances in the AWS Cloud.

Enable this integration to see in Datadog all your EBS metrics.

Setup

Installation

If you haven’t already, set up the Amazon Web Services integration first.

Metric collection

In the AWS integration page, ensure that EBS is enabled under the Metric Collection tab.
Install the Datadog - Amazon EBS integration.

Note: This integration collects metrics for EBS volumes attached to a monitored EC2. To collect all EBS metrics, make sure that EC2 is checked in the AWS integration page and that the EC2 is not excluded from monitoring with the limit resource collection setting.

Log collection

Enable logging

Configure Amazon EBS to send logs either to a S3 bucket or to CloudWatch.

Note: If you log to a S3 bucket, make sure that amazon_ebs is set as Target prefix.

Send logs to Datadog

If you haven’t already, set up the Datadog Forwarder Lambda function.
Once the Lambda function is installed, manually add a trigger on the S3 bucket or CloudWatch log group that contains your Amazon EBS logs in the AWS console:
- Add a manual trigger on the S3 bucket
- Add a manual trigger on the CloudWatch Log Group

Data Collected

Metrics

aws.ebs.burst_balance (gauge)	Balance available in the burst bucket. This metric contains values for all volume types including io1. Shown as percent
aws.ebs.burst_balance.io1 (gauge)	Balance available in the burst bucket. Better granularity but only for io1 volumes. Shown as percent
aws.ebs.snapshot_age (gauge)	Time since the most recent complete snapshot was created Shown as second
aws.ebs.status.impaired (gauge)	The number of EBS volumes with the impaired status.
aws.ebs.status.insufficient_data (gauge)	The number of EBS volumes with the insufficient-data status.
aws.ebs.status.ok (gauge)	The number of EBS volumes with the ok status.
aws.ebs.status.warning (gauge)	The number of EBS volumes with the warning status.
