Using oslo.metrics

Usage

A simple example of oslo.metrics in use:

$ oslo-metrics
2020-06-11 15:59:53.459 5435 INFO oslo.metrics.__main__ [-] Start oslo.metrics


Testing with DevStack

This section describes how to test out oslo.metrics and collect oslo.messaging metric data using Devstack.

Download DevStack

$ git clone https://opendev.org/openstack/devstack
$ cd devstack


The devstack repo contains a script that installs OpenStack and templates for configuration files.

Create a local.conf

Create a local.conf file with four passwords preset at the root of the devstack git repo.

[[local|localrc]]
ADMIN_PASSWORD=secret
DATABASE_PASSWORD=$ADMIN_PASSWORD
RABBIT_PASSWORD=$ADMIN_PASSWORD
SERVICE_PASSWORD=$ADMIN_PASSWORD
LIBS_FROM_GIT=oslo.messaging
[[post-config|$NOVA_CONF]]
[oslo_messaging_metrics]
metrics_enabled = True


This is the minimum required config to get started with Devstack including oslo.metrics.

Start the install

$ ./stack.sh


This will take a 15 - 20 minutes, largely depending on the speed of your internet connection. Many git trees and packages will be installed during this process.

Start the Metrics Server

$ oslo-metrics


This command will start oslo.metrics server and start collecting oslo.messaging metrics sending from OpenStack services.

oslo.metrics exporter will serve on port 3000 by default.
