Measurements

The Telemetry service collects meters within an OpenStack deployment. This section provides a brief summary about meters format and origin and also contains the list of available meters.

Telemetry collects meters by polling the infrastructure elements and also by consuming the notifications emitted by other OpenStack services. For more information about the polling mechanism and notifications see telemetry-data-collection. There are several meters which are collected by polling and by consuming. The origin for each meter is listed in the tables below.

Note

You may need to configure Telemetry or other OpenStack services in order to be able to collect all the samples you need. For further information about configuration requirements see the Telemetry chapter in the Installation Tutorials and Guides. Also check the Telemetry manual installation description.

Telemetry uses the following meter types:

Type	Description
Cumulative	Increasing over time (instance hours)
Delta	Changing over time (bandwidth)
Gauge	Discrete items (floating IPs, image uploads) and fluctuating values (disk I/O)

Telemetry provides the possibility to store metadata for samples. This metadata can be extended for OpenStack Compute and OpenStack Object Storage.

In order to add additional metadata information to OpenStack Compute you have two options to choose from. The first one is to specify them when you boot up a new instance. The additional information will be stored with the sample in the form of resource_metadata.user_metadata.*. The new field should be defined by using the prefix metering.. The modified boot command look like the following:

$ openstack server create --property metering.custom_metadata=a_value my_vm

The other option is to set the reserved_metadata_keys to the list of metadata keys that you would like to be included in resource_metadata of the instance related samples that are collected for OpenStack Compute. This option is included in the DEFAULT section of the ceilometer.conf configuration file.

You might also specify headers whose values will be stored along with the sample data of OpenStack Object Storage. The additional information is also stored under resource_metadata. The format of the new field is resource_metadata.http_header_$name, where $name is the name of the header with - replaced by _.

For specifying the new header, you need to set metadata_headers option under the [filter:ceilometer] section in proxy-server.conf under the swift folder. You can use this additional data for instance to distinguish external and internal users.

Measurements are grouped by services which are polled by Telemetry or emit notifications that this service consumes.

Note

To enable the libvirt memory.usage support, you need to install libvirt version 1.1.1+, QEMU version 1.5+, and you also need to prepare suitable balloon driver in the image. It is applicable particularly for Windows guests, most modern Linux distributions already have it built in. Telemetry is not able to fetch the memory.usage samples without the image balloon driver.

Note

To enable libvirt disk.* support when running on RBD-backed shared storage, you need to install libvirt version 1.2.16+.

The Telemetry service supports creating new meters by using transformers, but this is deprecated and discouraged to use. Among the meters gathered from libvirt and Hyper-V, there are a few which are derived from other meters. The list of meters that are created by using the rate_of_change transformer from the above table is the following:

• cpu_util
• cpu.delta
• disk.read.requests.rate
• disk.write.requests.rate
• disk.read.bytes.rate
• disk.write.bytes.rate
• disk.device.read.requests.rate
• disk.device.write.requests.rate
• disk.device.read.bytes.rate
• disk.device.write.bytes.rate
• network.incoming.bytes.rate
• network.outgoing.bytes.rate
• network.incoming.packets.rate
• network.outgoing.packets.rate

Note

If storing data in Gnocchi, derived rate_of_change metrics are also computed using Gnocchi in addition to Ceilometer transformers. It avoids missing data when Ceilometer services restart. To minimize Ceilometer memory requirements transformers can be disabled. These rate_of_change meters are deprecated and will be removed in default Ceilometer configuration in future release.

OpenStack Compute is capable of collecting CPU related meters from the compute host machines. In order to use that you need to set the compute_monitors option to cpu.virt_driver in the nova.conf configuration file. For further information see the Compute configuration section in the Compute chapter of the OpenStack Configuration Reference.

The following host machine related meters are collected for OpenStack Compute:

Name	Type	Unit	Resource	Origin	Note

IPMI meters

Telemetry captures notifications that are emitted by the Bare metal service. The source of the notifications are IPMI sensors that collect data from the host machine.

Alternatively, IPMI meters can be generated by deploying the ceilometer-agent-ipmi on each IPMI-capable node. For further information about the IPMI agent see telemetry-ipmi-agent.

Warning

To avoid duplication of metering data and unnecessary load on the IPMI interface, do not deploy the IPMI agent on nodes that are managed by the Bare metal service and keep the conductor.send_sensor_data option set to False in the ironic.conf configuration file.

The following IPMI sensor meters are recorded:

Name	Type	Unit	Resource	Origin	Note
**Meters added in	the Mita	ka rele	ase or earl	ier**
hardware.ipmi.fan	Gauge	RPM	fan sensor	Notification, Pollster	Fan rounds per minute (RPM)
hardware.ipmi.temperature	Gauge	C	temperature sensor	Notification, Pollster	Temperature reading from sensor
hardware.ipmi.current	Gauge	W	current sensor	Notification, Pollster	Current reading from sensor
hardware.ipmi.voltage	Gauge	V	voltage sensor	Notification, Pollster	Voltage reading from sensor

Note

The sensor data is not available in the Bare metal service by default. To enable the meters and configure this module to emit notifications about the measured values see the Installation Guide for the Bare metal service.

Besides generic IPMI sensor data, the following Intel Node Manager meters are recorded from capable platform:

Ceph Object Storage

In order to gather meters from Ceph, you have to install and configure the Ceph Object Gateway (radosgw) as it is described in the Installation Manual. You also have to enable usage logging in order to get the related meters from Ceph. You will need an admin user with users, buckets, metadata and usage caps configured.

In order to access Ceph from Telemetry, you need to specify a service group for radosgw in the ceilometer.conf configuration file along with access_key and secret_key of the admin user mentioned above.

The following meters are collected for Ceph Object Storage:

Name	Type	Unit	Resource	Origin	Note
**Meters added in	the Mit	aka relea	se or earlier	**
radosgw.objects	Gauge	object	storage ID	Pollster	Number of objects
