Introduction

You can view the VM creation statuses (such as creating, created, and creation failed) to monitor the progress of VM creation on SCP, from request submission to the point when the VM becomes available. This helps monitor the VM creation progress, identify creation failure causes, and confirm the service launch time. It also ensures that the entire creation process remains traceable, and any issue arising during the process can be located quickly.

Background

1. On SCP, you can view VM creation statuses in Task Center (monitor the progress of the creation task), Resource Center > VMs (check the final status), and Tasks (query logs related to VM creation).
2. Description of VM creation statuses:

• Creating: The platform is allocating resources, initializing disks, and configuring the network for the VM, and the VM cannot be edited or powered on.

• Created: Resource allocation and initialization are complete. The VM is in Off or On status.

• Creation failed: Creation stopped due to issues such as insufficient resources, invalid configuration, or a corrupted image. Failure logs show the exact cause.

3. Status update mechanism: The status is updated in real time, and the creating status is updated every 30 seconds. When creation fails, failure logs are retained for 7 days for troubleshooting.

Steps

Step 1.Log in to SCP and go to Resource Center > VMs.

Step 9.Click the Tasks icon in the lower-right corner, and the VM creation task you submitted will be displayed in the list.
