Google 监视器 - 带有 CPU、Memory 和 GCE 过滤器的磁盘使用情况的仪表板

Question

I'm trying to set up Googlecloud monitor Dashboard for my GCE's. I'm expiriancing some difficulties though when tring to filter. I have serveral GCE, and some are not running and are as backup, but are still displayed in the Cloud Monitor.

I would like to monitor 3 metrics (for now): CPU, Mem, Disk usage. CPU wasnt a problem as i could just filter by GCE instance name:

But now if i try to do the same for Memory and Disk usage, I dont have the option to filter as I did using CPU. I tried serveral different approaches like filter by "metadata labels:name", "label", "zone" etc. - all result in a "no data avalible for selected timeframe" (without the filter data is displayed). I feel like I'm missing something trivial:

What am I doing wrong? How can I filter by Instancename? Do i need to Activate some logger on Google cloud? Thank you verymuch in advance!

Use the Cloud Monitoring agent to gather system and application metrics (disk, CPU, network and process) from VM instances and send them to Monitoring.

Install the Monitoring Agent

Use the Cloud Logging agent to gather logging metrics from VM instances and send them to Cloud Monitoring.
