Description of problem: In order to be able to configure Collectd to send metrics to Gnocchi DB, we need to provide relevant plugin for this. https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/mrunge/collectd-stuff/package/python-collectd-gnocchi/
kolla change has been merged python-collectd-gnocchi-1.4.1-0.1 was built for OSP 13 missing is the tht change
This needs documentation: how to use and make sure the change in data storage is also mentioned to enable users to even maybe migrate metrics from one backend to the other.
Verified. collectd-gnocchi conf file successfully created ()[root@controller-0 collectd.d]# cat 00-python.conf # Generated by Puppet <LoadPlugin python> Globals false </LoadPlugin> <Plugin "python"> Import "collectd_gnocchi" <Module "collectd_gnocchi"> ### Basic authentication Endpoint "http://10.35.64.7:8041" User "admin" ## Default resource type created by the plugin in Gnocchi ## to store hosts ResourceType "collectd" ## Minimum number of values to batch BatchSize 10 </Module> </Plugin>
There was some misunderstanding in what should be tested to verify this BZ. I am moving this bug back to ON_QA because I couldn't test collectd-gnocchi functionality yet because of another bug the blocks me form doing that. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1543499
metrics are being sent to the gnocchi DB running on the opstools server.
