<title>Measure cloud resources</title>
|
|
<para>The OpenStack Telemetry service measures cloud resources in
|
|
OpenStack.</para>
|
|
<para>It collects information about how much, who, what, and when
|
|
with regards to billing. Currently, metering is available
|
|
through only the <command>ceilometer</command> command-line
|
|
client.</para>
|
|
<para>To model data, the Telemetry service uses these
|
|
abstractions:</para>
|
|
<variablelist wordsize="10">

|
|
<term><emphasis role="bold">Meter</emphasis></term>
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para>Measures a specific aspect of resource usage,
|
|
such as the existence of a running instance, or
|
|
ongoing performance, such as the CPU utilization
|
|
for an instance. Meters exist for each type of
|
|
resource. For example, a separate
|
|
<literal>cpu_util</literal> meter exists for
|
|
each instance. The life cycle of a meter is
|
|
decoupled from the existence of its related
|
|
resource. The meter persists after the resource
|
|
goes away.</para>
|
|
<para>A meter has the following attributes:</para>

<para>A type. Indicates whether values
|
|
increase monotonically (cumulative), are
|
|
interpreted as a change from the previous
|
|
value (delta), or are standalone and

|

(gauge).</para>

<para>An individual data point that is associated with
|
|
a specific meter. Has the same attributes as the

meter, with the addition of timestamp and value

attributes. The value attribute is also known as

the sample <emphasis role="italic"

<listitem>
|
|
<para>A set of data point aggregates over a time
|
|
duration. (In contrast, a sample represents a
|
|
single data point.) The Telemetry service employs
|
|
these aggregation functions:</para>
|
|
<itemizedlist>
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para><emphasis role="bold">count</emphasis>.
|
|
The number of samples in each
|
|
period.</para>
|

</listitem>
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para><emphasis role="bold">max</emphasis>.
|

The maximum number of sample volumes in
|
|
each period.</para>
|
|
</listitem>
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para><emphasis role="bold">min</emphasis>.

|
|
each period.</para>
|
|
</listitem>
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para><emphasis role="bold">avg</emphasis>.

The average of sample volumes over each

period.</para>
|

</listitem>

<listitem>

<para><emphasis role="bold">sum</emphasis>.

<para>A set of rules that define a monitor and a
|
|
current state, with edge-triggered actions
|
|
associated with target states. Provides
|
|
user-oriented Monitoring-as-a-Service and a
|
|
general purpose utility for Openstack.
|
|
Orchestration auto scaling is a typical use-case.
|
|
Alarms follow a tristate model of
|
|
<literal>ok</literal>,
|
|
<literal>alarm</literal>, and
|
|
<literal>insufficient data</literal>. For
|
|
conventional threshold-oriented alarms, a static
|
|
threshold value and comparison operator govern
|
|
state transitions. The comparison operator
|
|
compares a selected meter statistic against an
|
|
evaluation window of configurable length into the
|
|
recent past.</para>

<para>This example uses the <command>heat</command> client to

create an auto-scaling stack and the

<command>ceilometer</command> client to measure

resources.</para>
