OpenStack Icehouse : How to Use Ceilometer2015/02/06

How to use the OpenStack Metering Service (Ceilometer).

This example is based on the environment like follows.

                                |
+------------------+            |            +------------------------+

                      +--------------------+
                      |  [ Compute Node ]  |
                      |    Nova Compute    |
                      |      L2 Agent      |
                      | Ceilometer-Compute |
                      +--------------------+

[1]	After configuring Configure Ceilometer#1, Configure Ceilometer#2, Configure Ceilometer#3, if configuration of them are done normally, the command of follows answers without errors like follows.

[root@dlp ~(keystone)]#

ceilometer meter-list

+------+------+------+-------------+---------+------------+
| Name | Type | Unit | Resource ID | User ID | Project ID |
+------+------+------+-------------+---------+------------+
+------+------+------+-------------+---------+------------+

[2]	It's possible to monitor Compute Service (Nova) now. Try to create and start an instance, and next, input the command meter-list again, then meters are loged like follows.

[root@dlp ~(keystone)]#

Int_Net_ID=`neutron net-list | grep int_net | awk '{ print $2 }'`

[root@dlp ~(keystone)]#

nova boot --flavor 2 --image CentOS6 --security_group default --nic net-id=$Int_Net_ID CentOS_66
