# AI Tools - Monitor your cloud resources

**Learn how to access and interpret the various metrics provided by the monitoring dashboard, which is accessible for AI Notebooks, AI Training, and AI Deploy services through a dedicated UI on Grafana.**

**AI Tools** offer comprehensive capabilities for your cloud resources, ensuring optimal performance and efficiency.

 

## Requirements

- An AI Project created inside a [Public Cloud project](https://us.ovhcloud.com/public-cloud/) within your OVHcloud account
- An [AI user](https://docs.us.ovhcloud.com/en/public-cloud/ai-machine-learning/manage-users-roles.md)
- Access to the [OVHcloud Control Panel](https://manager.us.ovhcloud.com/) or the [OVHcloud AI CLI](https://docs.us.ovhcloud.com/en/public-cloud/ai-machine-learning/cli-install-client.md) installed on your computer
- A running **OVHcloud AI Tool** (AI Notebooks, AI Training, or AI Deploy)

 

## Instructions

### Monitoring Grafana Access

The monitoring dashboard for AI Tools can be accessed via a dedicated URL, which is provided in the AI Tool details, accessible from the Control Panel (UI) or the [ovhai CLI](https://docs.us.ovhcloud.com/en/public-cloud/ai-machine-learning/cli-install-client.md). The monitoring URL is structured as follows: `https://monitoring.<REGION>.ai.cloud.ovh.us/d/gpu?var-job=<JOB-ID>`

#### Using the OVHcloud Control Panel

First, go to the `Public Cloud` section of the [OVHcloud Control Panel](https://manager.us.ovhcloud.com/).
Select your Public Cloud project, then go to the `AI & Machine Learning` category in the left menu and choose `AI Notebooks`, `AI Training`, or `AI Deploy` section depending on the AI Tool you are using.
From there, you will access a table listing your instances, where you can find the one you need and its general information. To view your instance details, click either the instance name or the _more options_ `...` button and then `Manage`.

From there, you can click on the `Grafana Dashboard` button, under `Usage monitoring`, to access your monitoring Grafana UI.

#### Using ovhai CLI

To follow this part, make sure you have installed the [ovhai CLI](https://docs.us.ovhcloud.com/en/public-cloud/ai-machine-learning/cli-install-client.md) on your computer or on an instance.
If you have not done it already, log in to the `ovhai` CLI. Once logged in, you can list your existing notebooks, jobs, or apps by running one of the following commands, depending on the AI tool you are using:
```bash
ovhai notebook list
ovhai job list
ovhai app list
```
Using the ID of the instance you are interested in, you can retrieve more information, including the monitoring link, by executing one of the following commands:
```bash
ovhai notebook get <NOTEBOOK-ID>
ovhai job get <JOB-ID>
ovhai app get <APP-ID>
```
Be sure to use the ID of your notebook, job, or app, respectively.
This will give you a similar output:
