group-min-connections
Minimum subscriber connections that this group should support. This param helps the scale-in process decide when to scale down an edge.
min-origin-connections
Minimum connections at origin. This should always be zero (0) for the current version of Stream Manager.
launch-config-name
Name of the launch configuration to be used for launching a new instance. Usually this implies the consistent machine configuration for a group. A launch configuration defines your compute machine type, max connections, etc., for an instance.
scale-policy-name
Name of the scale policy to be used by Autoscaler to launch new edges when load conditions occur. A scale policy defines details such as min-max edges allowed, instances warm up time, cooldown period, etc.
stream-name
Name of the stream for publishing or subscription.
stream-scope
Red5 scope where the stream exists. This usually determined by the RTMP connection URL.
origin-host-address
Host address of an available Red5 Pro origin server.
stream-description
Description information about the stream (optional).
compute-region-code
Google Compute availability zone code – https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/zones?hl=en#available).
origin-compute-region-code
Google Compute availability zone code for origin – https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/zones?hl=en#available).
subscriber-count
Total active subscribers count for this stream.
start-timestamp
Stream start timestamp.
node-identifier
Unique Identifier of a node. Directly translates as compute instance name.
role
Role of the instance in the system: Origin or Edge.
host
Instance host name/address.
node-state
Instance state: RUNNING, TERMINATING, INSERVICE, PENDING, etc.
connection-capacity
Max connection capacity of this instance as per launch configuration information.
group-identifier
Group name identifier.
error-message-string
Human friendly error message string.
error-timestamp
Timestamp for when the error message was generated.
