collectd/openstack

Monitor Type: collectd/openstack (Source)

Accepts Endpoints: No

Multiple Instances Allowed: Yes

Overview

Monitors Openstack by using the Openstack collectd Python plugin, which collects metrics from Openstack instances. This plugin is installed with the Smart Agent, so no additional installation is required to use this montior.

This monitor covers the following Openstack components:

  • Nova (Compute)
  • Cinder (BlockStorge)
  • Neutron (Network)

Please see the reference for OpenStack Monitoring.

Deployment Host

Identify a host on which the SignalFx agent will run. This integration collects data from OpenStack remotely via APIs, and so those API endpoints must be visible to the host on which the agent runs. We do not recommend installing the agent directly on a compute instance because a compute instance/resource under one project cannot get stats about the resources under other projects. Also, a compute instance may go down due to lack of resources in the project.

Example config

monitors:
- type: collectd/openstack
  authURL: "http://192.168.11.111/identity/v3"
  username: "admin"
  password: "secret"

Example config using skipVerify

monitors:
- type: collectd/openstack
  authURL: "https://192.168.11.111/identity/v3"
  username: "admin"
  password: "secret"
  skipVerify: true

Configuration

To activate this monitor in the Smart Agent, add the following to your agent config:

monitors:  # All monitor config goes under this key
 - type: collectd/openstack
   ...  # Additional config

For a list of monitor options that are common to all monitors, see Common Configuration.

Config option Required Type Description
pythonBinary no string Path to a python binary that should be used to execute the Python code. If not set, a built-in runtime will be used. Can include arguments to the binary as well.
authURL yes string Keystone authentication URL/endpoint for the OpenStack cloud
username yes string Username to authenticate with keystone identity
password yes string Password to authenticate with keystone identity
projectName no string Specify the name of Project to be monitored (default:"demo")
projectDomainID no string The project domain (default:"default")
regionName no string The region name for URL discovery, defaults to the first region if multiple regions are available.
userDomainID no string The user domain id (default:"default")
skipVerify no bool Skip SSL certificate validation (default: false)

Non-default metrics (version 4.7.0+)

To emit metrics that are not default, you can add those metrics in the generic monitor-level extraMetrics config option. Metrics that are derived from specific configuration options that do not appear in the above list of metrics do not need to be added to extraMetrics.

To see a list of metrics that will be emitted you can run agent-status monitors after configuring this monitor in a running agent instance.

Dimensions

The following dimensions may occur on metrics emitted by this monitor. Some dimensions may be specific to certain metrics.

Name Description
plugin This is always set to openstack.
plugin_instance This will contain the project id and name of the project given in the configuration.
