Monitor and observe machine pools in the Anyscale console

The Anyscale console provides a UI for monitoring and observing machine pools in your Anyscale organization.

This page provides an overview of the fields and metrics available in the Anyscale console for machine pools.

You create and configure machine pools using the Anyscale CLI. See Machine Pool API Reference.

You manage machine pools at the Anyscale organization level, but attach them to Anyscale clouds.

Total machinesThe number of machines in use from each partition.
PriorityThe priority ranking for the workload in each partition.
Cloud / ProjectThe cloud and project containing the workspace, job, or service.
Created atThe creation timestamp for the workload.
Created byThe user or service account that created the workload.

The following table describes the fields present for monitoring queued workloads:

FieldDescription
WorkloadThe name of the workspace, job, or service.
StatusThe current status for the workload in the queue.
Partitions & priorityThe partition and priority for the workload based on machine pool configurations.
Requested machinesThe number of machines required to deploy worker nodes.
Cloud / ProjectThe cloud and project containing the workspace, job, or service.
Created atThe creation timestamp for the workload.
Created byThe user or service account that created the workload.

Machines

Click the Machines tab to view the following information for all machines in your machine pool:

FieldDescription
Machine typeThe name of the machine type specified in the machine pool configuration.
Machine stateThe state of the machine, either Available, Allocated, Migrating, or Restoring.
PartitionThe partition of the machine pool containing the machine.
Cloud Instance IDThe unique identifier for the cloud resource in the cloud provider account.
Workload detailsThe name of the workspace, job, or service running on the machine.
Workload Cloud / ProjectThe cloud and project containing the workload running on the machine.

Configuration

Click the Configuration tab to view the configuration YAML for the machine pool.

You can't modify a machine pool configuration with the UI, but you can copy and modify the provided configuration YAML and use the machine pool API to update your machine pool. See Machine Pool API Reference.
