Been vaguely following this thread and I have a question.<br>
<br>
Just to confirm, as I haven't touched ceilometer code in ages, the
instance metric still exists? Or at least something like it?<br>
<br>
We're currently using ceilometer as the data collection for our
billing, and the instance metric is our primary way of billing for
compute mainly because it tells us which instances exist at a given
point in time. We further then use the metadata of that metric to
get instance state (building, active, shutdown, terminating, etc) to
determine if we should bill it.<br>
<br>
With the changes to ceilometer and the move to gnocchi I know we
will need to rebuild how we handle billing data as we upgrade, but
what I'm worried about is if gnocchi+ceilometer have some equivalent
to the instance metric that will supply us with the same data, or do
we now need to do our own notification monitoring...<br>
<br>
Basically what I need is time series data of, this instance was in
this state from this period to that period, and if I query for a
range I get the ranges or changes in that time series. Is something
like that present, or if not would I be able to make something like
that in gnocchi? That way I can then query for a time range and know
what state changes occurred for a given instance.<br>
<br>
After my current project I think I may need to dig into gnocchi and
ceilometer again because I'm so far behind where things currently
are. :(<br>

<div>If we want to keep a count of instance creation and
deletion, you will need to monitor the events and look for
specific event types like compute.instance.create.end or
compute.instance.delete.end.</div>

we don't build instance meter anymore because it's not a
meter as it's<br>
not measuring anything.<br>
