Fixed In Version: openstack-tripleo-heat-templates-0.8.6-11.el7ost
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Ceilometer uses an incorrect redis VIP for its backend_url. This fix sets the Ceilometer backend_url to one that Heat provides and not constructed during deployment. Ceilometer now uses the correct IP address.

Description Marius Cornea 2015-06-17 13:48:26 UTC

Ceilometer redis IP address is not showing on all controllers in HA deployment with 3 controllers.

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Deploy overcloud with 3 controller nodes
2.
3.

Actual results:
Redis backend url in /etc/ceilometer/ceilometer.conf is set only one of the controller nodes. 

Expected results:
All the controller nodes have the redis backend url.

Additional info:
[heat-admin@overcloud-controller-0 ~]$ sudo grep backend_url=redis /etc/ceilometer/ceilometer.conf
backend_url=redis://192.0.2.13:6379
[heat-admin@overcloud-controller-1 ~]$ sudo grep backend_url=redis /etc/ceilometer/ceilometer.conf
backend_url=redis://:6379
[heat-admin@overcloud-controller-2 ~]$ sudo grep backend_url=redis /etc/ceilometer/ceilometer.conf
backend_url=redis://:6379

Comment 4 Marius Cornea 2015-06-17 16:10:15 UTC
neutron port-list | grep redis_virtual_ip 
| b6240296-0968-4c3d-a6be-2fb2e2371c90 | redis_virtual_ip   | fa:16:3e:10:2e:26 | {"subnet_id": "34f46be5-855f-42d7-96cb-0533d916def0", "ip_address": "192.0.2.13"} |

The Redis VIP seems to be set in the ceilometer conf file only on one of the controllers. Nevertheles the node where the Redis VIP is set is running Redis on the local IP address not on the VIP:

[stack@instack ~]$ ssh heat-admin.2.13 'sudo lsof -i :6379 -n'
COMMAND     PID  USER   FD   TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
redis-ser 23585 redis    4u  IPv4 194002      0t0  TCP 192.0.2.14:6379 (LISTEN)
redis-ser 23585 redis    6u  IPv4 197905      0t0  TCP 192.0.2.14:38999->192.0.2.15:6379 (ESTABLISHED)

Comment 5 Giulio Fidente 2015-06-17 16:35:15 UTC
hi Marisu,

redis is meant to bind on the local ip address, the clients have to reach it via the VIP

can you please attach log from ceilometer-central ?

Comment 6 Marius Cornea 2015-06-17 16:42:40 UTC
Created attachment 1040023 [details]
central.log

Attached, it's showing connection refused for the VIP address.

Comment 7 Giulio Fidente 2015-06-17 16:44:47 UTC
Balancing for Redis is false by default [1] we miss to enable it!

Comment 8 Giulio Fidente 2015-06-17 16:53:54 UTC
On the non-0 controllers backend_url appear to be misconfigured as well:

 backend_url=redis://:6379

Comment 9 Marios Andreou 2015-06-18 09:15:13 UTC
waiting for envs to come up but setting [1] is trivial may just start a review for that while waiting and then dig at the other issue giulio mentions in #8 above.

Comment 10 Marios Andreou 2015-06-18 10:20:06 UTC
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/193048/ Enable loadbalancing of the Redis VIP, defaults to False


upstream review out as a placeholder fow now to see if it fixes the problem and what else might be needed.

Comment 11 Marios Andreou 2015-06-18 14:02:36 UTC
so confirmed by gfidente and also my latest run with downstream tht + the review above shows correct backend_url on controller-1 for example:

[root@overcloud-controller-1 heat-admin]# sudo grep backend_url=redis /etc/ceilometer/ceilometer.conf
backend_url=redis://192.0.2.14:6379
