Hi Nick

The monitoring of the physical devices should help the cloud provider to manage the infrastructure(e.g. Are there enough physical resources for the next xx months?)
For this reason  I think there is no need to know which tenant the bare-metal uses. But if there is a strong demand to get this information we can implement this feature as well.

Hello Toni,

Looks like a nice addition for monitoring purposes, but just to make sure I understand correctly, am I clear thinking that this is not intended to solve the issue of metering bare-metal provisioned via nova as "guest"?

In any case, I think there are chances the subscriber to monitoring event might be a different collector than the one for metering events, but that is just a detail that is being finalized as part of the multi-publisher blueprint.

Hi there,

As we discussed last week there is a need for hardware monitoring in the OpenStack environment. I worked out a blueprint (see https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ceilometer/+spec/monitoring-physical-devices) for this case. There is also a diagram of the architecture on the wiki (see http://wiki.openstack.org/Ceilometer/MonitoringPhysicalDevices) so we can discuss about it more specifically.
