Alarming service

This section describes how to install and configure the Telemetry Alarming service, code-named aodh.

Prerequisites

Before you install and configure the Alarming service, you must create a database, service credentials, and API endpoints.

  1. To create the database, complete these steps:

    • Use the database access client to connect to the database server as the root user:

      $ mysql -u root -p
    • Create the aodh database:

      CREATE DATABASE aodh;
    • Grant proper access to the aodh database:

      GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON aodh.* TO 'aodh'@'localhost' \
        IDENTIFIED BY 'AODH_DBPASS';
      GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON aodh.* TO 'aodh'@'%' \
        IDENTIFIED BY 'AODH_DBPASS';

      Replace AODH_DBPASS with a suitable password.

    • Exit the database access client.

  2. Source the admin credentials to gain access to admin-only CLI commands:

    $ . admin-openrc
  3. To create the service credentials, complete these steps:

    • Create the aodh user:

      $ openstack user create --domain default \
        --password-prompt aodh
      User Password:
      Repeat User Password:
      +-----------+----------------------------------+
      | Field     | Value                            |
      +-----------+----------------------------------+
      | domain_id | e0353a670a9e496da891347c589539e9 |
      | enabled   | True                             |
      | id        | b7657c9ea07a4556aef5d34cf70713a3 |
      | name      | aodh                             |
      +-----------+----------------------------------+
    • Add the admin role to the aodh user:

      $ openstack role add --project service --user aodh admin

      Note

      This command provides no output.

    • Create the aodh service entity:

      $ openstack service create --name aodh \
        --description "Telemetry" alarming
      +-------------+----------------------------------+
      | Field       | Value                            |
      +-------------+----------------------------------+
      | description | Telemetry                        |
      | enabled     | True                             |
      | id          | 3405453b14da441ebb258edfeba96d83 |
      | name        | aodh                             |
      | type        | alarming                         |
      +-------------+----------------------------------+
  4. Create the Alarming service API endpoints:

    $ openstack endpoint create --region RegionOne \
      alarming public http://controller:8042
      +--------------+----------------------------------+
      | Field        | Value                            |

Install and configure components

Note

Default configuration files vary by distribution. You might need to add these sections and options rather than modifying existing sections and options. Also, an ellipsis (...) in the configuration snippets indicates potential default configuration options that you should retain.

  1. Edit the /etc/aodh/aodh.conf file and complete the following actions:
    • In the [database] section, configure database access:

      [database]
      ...
      connection = mongodb://aodh:AODH_DBPASS@controller:27017/aodh

      Replace AODH_DBPASS with the password you chose for the Telemetry Alarming module database. You must escape special characters such as ':', '/', '+', and '@' in the connection string in accordance with RFC2396.

    • In the [DEFAULT] and [oslo_messaging_rabbit] sections, configure RabbitMQ message queue access:

      [DEFAULT]
      ...
      rpc_backend = rabbit
      
      [oslo_messaging_rabbit]
      ...
      rabbit_host = controller
