Hi Thomas, thank you for the answer. I have this content in my gnocchi_resources.yaml - 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: dynamic.network.services.lb.loadbalancer: network.services.lb.total.connections: network.services.lb.active.connections: But to be honest I didn’t do db_sync. I’m using kolla-ansible and I have all services in container, so I should run db_sync inside ceilometer-central container? It’s not automatically synced when a service/container is restarted? Best regards Adam

Hi, Im trying to get metrics from octavia’s load balancer, but can’t get any (gnocchi metric list | grep loadbalancer not returning anything). 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? I’ve tried to use [service_providers] service_provider = LOADBALANCERV2:Octavia:neutron_lbaas.drivers.octavia.driver.OctaviaDriver:default in neutron.conf, but it doesn’t work either…

Best regards Adam

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,

OK. I have some progress. I created meters.d and pollster.d (in pollsters.d I’ve created octavia.yaml with sample type gauge and unit load balancer) and now I can see some measures, but only if load balancer exists or not. Is there any way to force dynamic pollster to ask for url v2/lbaas/loadbalancers/[ID]/stats? Best regards Adam
