FYI your feedback would be appreciated. the basic idea is to gather floating ip data from neutron rather than nova. cheers, -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [openstack-dev] [ceilometer] ceilometer Floatingip Pollster change Date: Tue, 19 Jan 2016 23:28:37 -0500 From: Pradeep Kilambi <pkilambi at redhat.com> Reply-To: OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) <openstack-dev at lists.openstack.org> To: OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) <openstack-dev at lists.openstack.org> Ceilometer floatingip pollster currently polls the nova api to get the floating ip info periodically. But due to limitations in the nova api as listed in this bug[1], the data ceilometer receives isn't all that useful. Nova doesn't return this info for all tenants. There has been some work in juno time frame but it was reverted due to the fact that the nova api logs were being spammed [2]. Due to these concerns, the proposal now is to use the neutron api to get this data as proposed in this patch[3]. What we would like to know is, 1. Is the data gathered from current floating ip pollster being used? if so how and what context ? 2. This might only be an issue for pure nova-network scenario, but even that i'm not sure how useful the current data we gather is? 3. Are there any other concerns regarding this change that we should discuss? Any feedback appreciated, Thanks, ~ Pradeep [1] https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1402514 [2] http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2014-June/037304.html [3] https://review.openstack.org/#/c/269369/ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
