collectd-ceilometer-plugin troubleshooting guide

If you experience issues while deploying or using collectd-ceilometer-plugin, the information below can help diagnose the problem:

  • What version of keystone is being used in the deployment?
    • Version 2 is used in stable/mitaka version of the plugin, but Keystone V2 has been deprecated.
    • Support for Keystone V3 API is available for the Newton release and above.
  • Are the credentials in collectd-{gnocchi,aodh}-plugin.conf valid?
    • Export these credentials to your environment as OS_PROJECT_NAME, OS_USERNAME and OS_PASSWORD, and use the openstack client.
    • If the credentials are valid, you should be able to interact with the OpenStack services
    • If the credentials are invalid, then you should get a response telling you that.
  • Is the correct OS_AUTH_URL is used?

    $ openstack catalog show keystone
    $ grep "OS_AUTH_URL" /path/to/collectd.conf.d/collectd-{gnocchi,aodh}-plugin.conf
  • Is collectd-ceilometer-plugin.conf being parsed?

    • Does the collectd.conf have an Include block/directive?

      Include "/etc/collectd/collectd.conf.d/*.conf"

      OR

      <Include /etc/collectd/collectd.conf.d/>
        Filter "*.conf"
      </Include>
  • Enable the logfile plugin in collectd for better information (sample configuration at ../etc/collectd.conf.d/logging.conf).

    • Make sure to set the LogLevel to “debug” for maximum information
    • Use "VERBOSE True" in collectd-{aodh,gnocchi}-plugin.conf, in order to elevate debug messages to LogLevel info.
