FSx for Windows dimensions
FSx for Windows File Server metrics use the FSx
namespace and provide metrics for a single
dimension, FileSystemId
. You can find a file system's ID using the describe-file-systems
AWS CLI command or the DescribeFileSystems
API command. A file system ID takes the form of
fs-0123456789abcdef0
.
