How should I configure ceilometer to get metrics from octavia? Ceilometer asks neutron for load balancer metrics, and neutron responses „resource cannot be found” (and that is obvious, because Neutron LBaaS service is deprecated). How to force neutron to get these resources from Octavia?

Hi Adam,

It's up to Ceilometer to report it. Do create the resource types, add
this to /etc/ceilometer/gnocchi_resources.yaml (note: if you don't have
such a file in /etc/ceilometer, copy it there from somewhere below
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/ceilometer):

  - resource_type: loadbalancer
    metrics:
      network.services.lb.outgoing.bytes:
      network.services.lb.incoming.bytes:
      network.services.lb.pool:
      network.services.lb.listener:
      network.services.lb.member:
      network.services.lb.health_monitor:
      network.services.lb.loadbalancer:
      network.services.lb.total.connections:
      network.services.lb.active.connections:

Then do a ceilometer db_sync to populate the Gnocchi resource types.

I hope this helps,
Cheers,
