ceilometer API does not list meters apart from 4 meters with prefix 'storage.objects'
Hi everyone I have installed devstack in my standalone box. I have created some VM instances as well. Now when I try to get meter list from ceilometer through API I get only 4 meters all starting with 'storage.objects' (storage.objects.outgoing.bytes, storage.objects.incoming.bytes). I do not see any metrics about cpu utilization , memory, etc. Please help me how can I debug this.
did you find any errors in the ceilometer related logs and ensure the rabbitmq can be reached.
I checked /var/log/ceilometer-api/ceilometer-api.log. There are no new messages and no error. The messages were of old timestamp. How can I check if rabbitmq is reachable?
try this way, remove or backup all the logs related to ceilometer then restart all the ceilometer services(c-api,c-collector,c-compute-agent,etc) and paste all the logs to paste.openstack.org and we will take a close look.
Hi.. I do not see any logs for ceilometer under /var/log/ apart from /var/log/ceiloemter-api/ceilometer-api.log . I have pasted the logs of other ceilometer process here http://paste.openstack.org/show/165477/ . Does this help?
Hi I wanted a few more answers . So I am posting my questions here. Glad if you could help. Thanks in adavance 1. The meters being collected by ceilometer - does it depend on hypervisor being used? 2. What is the default hypervisor used by openstack(devstack installation) ? How can I figure it out?
