Do you mean to use the cpu meter not cpu_util?
Also, there is no filtering so the statistics query done by the alarm
evaluator would return information for all vms.
Try (roughly)
ceilometer statistics -m cpu --period 60

Subject:	[Openstack] Ceilometer:  alarm not generating



Hello All,
I have configured Havana set up on Ubuntu 12.04 with Ceilometer.

Ceilometer is not producing any alarm even though condition is met , Below
is the detail

root at controller:/var/log/ceilometer# ceilometer alarm-threshold-create
--name cpuutlization --project-id 536518d5b38d4f3e9dcab26403d4d6e8
--user-id admin --description Threshholdvalue --state alarm --enabled True
--alarm-action 'log://' --meter-name cpu --period 60 --evaluation-periods 1
--statistic avg --comparison-operator 'gt' --threshold 30 --repeat-actions
True

I launched my stack and using stress command I increased cpu load ,
according to above condition once my condition met there should be some
logs in my  ceilometer-alarm-evaluator.log ceilometer-alarm-notifier.log
…but nothing is there in my log ..

Is there any addition configurations need to be done ..?

Regards,
Malleshi C N
