<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">So it’s looking to me like my problem was being caused by openstack-ansible trying to set up aodh although I didn’t configure it and didn’t want to use it. In ceilometer.conf I found that in the [database] section
the metering and event connections were correctly looking for mongodb at the IP I set as my bind IP, but it was also adding an alarm connection looking for an aodh user in the database at localhost. This was causing the ceilometer API to time out repeatedly
looking for the connection that didn’t exist. I don’t have any aodh configuration set up in /etc/openstack_deploy, so should that line not have been put into my ceilometer.conf?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#212121">I’ve been working on setting up a 10 node OpenStack installation with ceilometer using openstack-ansible, but the way I’ve configured it isn’t working for me. I’ve tried following these instructions

http://docs.openstack.org/developer/openstack-ansible/install-guide/configure-ceilometer.html</a>, doing these steps –<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#212121">Does anyone see anywhere that I went wrong in these steps, should bind-ip be set to something else, or should I be configuring this database on the compute host rather than the infra? The documentation wasn’t
