Description David Vallee Delisle 2017-11-03 21:37:45 UTC
Description of problem:
We have received a suggestion that the collectd documentation concerning the metrics could be enhanced, a bit like the ceilometer metric documentation [1]

I think everyone could benefit from an indepth document with descriptions of all metrics, units, description for collectd and all its supported plugins

Thank you very much,

DVD

Collectd has roughly 80 plugins, not all of them are useful with respect to OpenStack, none of them are installed by default.

See https://collectd.org/wiki/index.php/Table_of_Plugins

Could you please describe which ones are primarily requested, to have a starter?

Comment 14 Derek 2017-12-01 22:28:57 UTC
David et al, we'll need to talk and do some planning to understand exactly what we think is needed.  Can we set something up?

Comment 22 Lucy Bopf 2018-08-03 00:39:02 UTC
This request has been discussed and considered as part of the larger restructure effort for Metrics and Monitoring. I am adding this BZ as a blocker to the restructure EPIC. Details on the planned approach will be added here, in the EPIC, or directed to another specific BZ as appropriate.

Hi Gabriel,
I hope to have an update for you on this soon!

This issue is superseded by https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1840169

Available documentation for collectd plugins is available via the published documentation at https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_openstack_platform/16.2/html-single/service_telemetry_framework_1.3/index#collectd-plugins_assembly

Eventually this assembly will be migrated to Red Hat OpenStack documentation. I am closing this out as a duplicate of the linked issue.
