Good catch. I fixed the docs.

Hi,

I just noticed that the example dynamic.network.services.vpn.connection from https://docs.openstack.org/ceilometer/latest/admin/telemetry-dynamic-pollster.html has the wrong indentation.
This https://paste.xinu.at/6PTfsM/ is loaded without any error.

Now I have to see why is not polling from it

Hi Rafael,

I think I applied all the reviews successfully but I tried to do an octavia dynamic poller but I have couples of errors.

Here is the octavia.yaml: https://paste.xinu.at/kDN6SV/
Error is about syntax error near name: https://paste.xinu.at/MHgDBY/

if i remove the - in front of name like this: https://paste.xinu.at/K7s5I8/
The error is different this time: https://paste.xinu.at/zWdC0U/

Is there something I missed or is something wrong  in yaml?

Since the merging window for ussuri was long passed for those commits, is it safe to assume that it will not land in stable/ussuri at all and those will be available for victoria?

I would say so. We are lacking people to review and then merge it.

How safe is to cherry pick those commits and use them in production?
As long as the person executing the cherry-picks, and maintaining the code knows what she/he is doing, you should be safe. The guys that are using this implementation (and others that I and my colleagues proposed), have a few openstack components that are customized with the patches/enhancements/extensions we developed so far; this means, they are not using the community version, but something in-between (the community releases + the patches we did). Of course, it is only possible, because we are the ones creating and maintaining these codes; therefore, we can assure quality for production.

The dynamic pollster in Ceilometer will be first released in Ussuri. However, there are some important PRs still waiting for a merge, that might be important for your use case:

Hello,

I want to meter the loadbalancer into gnocchi for billing purposes in stein/train and ceilometer doesn't support dynamic pollsters. 

I think I misunderstood your use case, sorry. I read it as if you wanted to know "if a loadbalancer was deployed and has status active".
 
Until I upgrade to Ussuri, is there a way to accomplish this?

I'm not sure Ceilometer supports it even in Ussuri. I'll defer to the Ceilometer project.

Hello guys,
I was trying to add in polling.yaml and pipeline from ceilometer the following:
   - network.services.lb.active.connections
      - network.services.lb.health_monitor
      - network.services.lb.incoming.bytes
      - network.services.lb.listener
      - network.services.lb.loadbalancer
      - network.services.lb.member
      - network.services.lb.outgoing.bytes
      - network.services.lb.pool
      - network.services.lb.total.connections

But it doesn't work, I think they are for the old lbs that were supported in neutron.


I was wondering if there is a way to meter loadbalancers from octavia. 
I mostly want for start to just meter if a loadbalancer was deployed and has status active.

You can get the provisioning and operating status of Octavia load balancers via the Octavia API. There is also an API endpoint that returns the full load balancer status tree [1]. Additionally, Octavia has three API endpoints for statistics [2][3][4].

I hope this helps with your use case.

Cheers,
Carlos
