Abstract

A method and network device for resource-aware dynamic monitoring of application units is described. Instantiation of a monitoring element is caused. A first usage status of resources is obtained. Configuration parameters of the monitoring element are set based upon the first usage status of the resources. The monitoring element is scheduled based upon the first usage status of the resources. A second usage status of the resources is obtained. A determination is performed of whether to update the monitoring element based upon the second usage status of the resources. Responsive to determining that the monitoring element is to be updated, at least one of the following is performed: (i) updating the one or more configuration parameters of the monitoring element based upon the second usage status of the resources, and (ii) rescheduling the monitoring element based upon the second usage status of the resources.
