Bug 1474584

I wonder if this is because libvirt is not in the same group as ceilo? 166 is suppose to be the userid for ceilometer user. But yesterday i did a fresh upstream tripleo deploy and i dont see this error:

[root@overcloud-novacompute-0 ~]# docker logs ceilometer_agent_compute
INFO:__main__:Loading config file at /var/lib/kolla/config_files/config.json
INFO:__main__:Validating config file

ceilometer user should be created automatically when ceilometer-common is installed in %pre section of the spec. So if thats installed, the user should exist obviously. Can you check a few things for me:

- is ceilometer-common installed in the ceilometer containers

- does ceilometer user exist in your /etc/passwd file in both ceilometer_agent_compute and libvirtrd containers?

On compute in nova_libvirt container:
ceilometer:x:42405:42405::/home/ceilometer:/usr/sbin/nologin

on controller:

ceilometer_agent_notification container:
openstack-ceilometer-common-8.1.0-0.20170719023739.082368a.el7ost.noarch

ceilometer_agent_central:
openstack-ceilometer-common-8.1.0-0.20170719023739.082368a.el7ost.noarch

Yea the id you have here is incorrect. This is due to the way kolla is building the images and creating user as part of the template. We need to fix the kolla dockerfile to somehow specify the uid/gid so it creates the user with right id instead of picking some random one.

So talking to jistr, we want to keep the uids this way so they dont conflict with host ids. In this case ceilometer doesn't care about what the uid is, but libvirt evidently does. But i dont know why.

 I deployed this upstream and i get the i/o error but dont see the uid issue. The I/O error could be due to an issue where redis password is defaulting to undef.

Can you provide couple more info:

- Whats the uid/gid for ceilometer in ceilometer_agent_compute containers

- do you see any errors in /var/log/ceilometer/ceilometyer-polling.log with in the ceilometer_agent_compute container.

in both ceilometer_agent_central and ceilometer_agent_notification: same uid

ceilometer:x:42405:42405::/var/lib/ceilometer:/usr/sbin/nologin


no ceilometer_agent_compute

No errors in /var/log/ceilometer/ceilometer-polling.log on ceilometer_agent_central

with this patch: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/487480/ I can confirm that i dont see any i/o errors in /var/log/messages on the compute host anymoire. Since at this point compute is working as expected, lets use that fix downstream and see if it resolves the issue.
