Configure the Compute service

Telemetry uses a combination of notifications and an agent to collect Compute meters. Perform these steps on each compute node.

To install and configure the agent

obs

1. Install the packages:

   # zypper install openstack-ceilometer-agent-compute

rdo

1. Install the packages:

   # yum install openstack-ceilometer-compute python-ceilometerclient python-pecan

ubuntu

1. Install the packages:

   # apt-get install ceilometer-agent-compute

2. Edit the /etc/ceilometer/ceilometer.conf file and complete the following actions:

   1. In the [publisher] section, configure the telemetry secret:

      [publisher]
      ...
      telemetry_secret = TELEMETRY_SECRET

      Replace TELEMETRY_SECRET with the telemetry secret you chose for the Telemetry module.

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

      [DEFAULT]
      ...
      rpc_backend = rabbit
      
      [oslo_messaging_rabbit]
      ...
      rabbit_host = controller
      rabbit_userid = openstack
      rabbit_password = RABBIT_PASS

      Replace RABBIT_PASS with the password you chose for the openstack account in RabbitMQ.

   3. In the [keystone_authtoken] section, configure Identity service access:

      [keystone_authtoken]
      ...
      auth_uri = http://controller:5000/v2.0
      identity_uri = http://controller:35357
      admin_tenant_name = service
      admin_user = ceilometer
      admin_password = CEILOMETER_PASS

      Replace CEILOMETER_PASS with the password you chose for the Telemetry module database.

      Note

      Comment out any auth_host, auth_port, and auth_protocol options because the identity_uri option replaces them.

   4. In the [service_credentials] section, configure service credentials:

      [service_credentials]
      ...
      os_auth_url = http://controller:5000/v2.0
      os_username = ceilometer
      os_tenant_name = service
      os_password = CEILOMETER_PASS
      os_endpoint_type = internalURL
      os_region_name = RegionOne

      Replace CEILOMETER_PASS with the password you chose for the ceilometer user in the Identity service.

   5. (Optional) To assist with troubleshooting, enable verbose logging in the [DEFAULT] section:

      [DEFAULT]
      ...
      verbose = True

To configure notifications

Configure the Compute service to send notifications to the message bus.

1. Edit the /etc/nova/nova.conf file and configure notifications in the [DEFAULT] section:

   [DEFAULT]
   ...
   instance_usage_audit = True
   instance_usage_audit_period = hour
   notify_on_state_change = vm_and_task_state
   notification_driver = messagingv2

To finalize installation

obs

1. Start the Telemetry agent and configure it to start when the system boots:

   # systemctl enable openstack-ceilometer-agent-compute.service
   # systemctl start openstack-ceilometer-agent-compute.service

rdo

1. Start the Telemetry agent and configure it to start when the system boots:

   # systemctl enable openstack-ceilometer-compute.service
   # systemctl start openstack-ceilometer-compute.service

obs or rdo

2. Restart the Compute service:

   # systemctl restart openstack-nova-compute.service

ubuntu

1. Restart the agent:

   # service ceilometer-agent-compute restart

2. Restart the Compute service:

   # service nova-compute restart
