Proposal 1 is too high level and doesn't get into the internals of what meters get mapped to what and what units should be associated with the meters/events - in essence it doesn't improve on what's there today for overlapping meters. However is good for new meters.
Proposal 2
...
Involves 2 schema:
- The final message format schema
- The mapping schema
The final message format schema for the ceilometer sample is:
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
{
"$schema "counter_name": "http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#instance",
"title "counter_type": "Collectd Mapping Schemagauge",
"description "counter_unit": "instance"A,
mapping from collectd meters and events to *other* meters and events",
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"resource_id": {
"description": "Mappings from collectd resource_id to other framework resource_id",
"type": "object",
"items": {
"type": "array",
"items": {
"collectd_resource_id": "string",
"new_resource_id": "string"
"counter_volume": 1.0,

"user_id": "efd87807-12d2-4b38-9c70-5f5c2ac427ff"
} |
The proposed mapping schema is:
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
{ "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#", "title": "Collectd Mapping Schema", "description": "A mapping } } }, "meters": { "description": "Mappings from collectd meters and events to *other* meters frameworkand metersevents", "type": "arrayobject", "items "properties": { "type": "array", "items "resource_id": { "collectd_meter_strings "description": "string", "new_meterMappings from collectd resource_id to other framework resource_id", "type": "stringobject", "collectd_unit "items": "string", "new_meter_unit{ "type": "stringarray", "unit_conversion": "string" } } }, "events": { "description": "Mappings from collectd events to other framework events", "type": "object", "items": { "type": "array", "items": { "collectd_event": "string", "new_event "items": { "collectd_resource_id": "string", "new_resource_id": "string", "collectd_severity": "string", "new_severity": "string" } } }, "collectd_plugin_to_field_map": { } } }, "meters": { "description": "Mappings offrom collectd_plugin valuesmeters to other framework Fieldsmeters", "type": "objectarray", "items": { "type": "objectarray", "items": { "Field "collectd_meter_strings": "string", "collectd_plugin": { "new_meter": "string", "typecollectd_unit": "arraystring", "items": { "collectd_plugin_name "new_meter_unit": "string", "unit_conversion": "string" } } } } } } } } } }, "events": { "description": "Mappings from collectd events to other framework events", "type": "object", "items": { "type": "array", "items": { "collectd_event": "string", "new_event": "string", "collectd_severity": "string", "new_severity": "string" } } }, "collectd_plugin_to_field_map": { "description": "Mappings of collectd_plugin values to Fields", "type": "object", "items": { "type": "object", "items": { "Field": "string", "collectd_field": { "type": "array", "items": { "collectd_plugin_name": "string", "collectd_plugin_type": "string" "collectd_plugin_type_instance": "string" } } } } } } } |
Taking the following ceilometer meter as an example:
| Code Block |
|---|
- name: 'vcpus'
event_type: 'compute.instance.*'
type: 'gauge'
unit: 'vcpu'
volume: $.payload.vcpus
user_id: $.payload.user_id
project_id: $.payload.tenant_id
resource_id: $.payload.instance_id
