  1. Status of Release
    1. What do we want in the release?

    2. virt plugin enhancements

      Virt plugin should be enhanced to provide the following additional details:

      Release GXX

      Image ModifiedBAROMETER-99 - Virt plugin enhancement -- VM names OPEN

      ovs-dpdk-statsThe ovs-dpdk-stats plugin should include extended dpdk stats per interfaceRelease GXX

      Image ModifiedBAROMETER-96 - Enable OVS-DPDK PMD Statistics OPEN

      ovs-dpdk-events link statusThe ovs-dpdk-events plugin should indicate link status change eventsRelease GXX

      Image ModifiedBAROMETER-109 - ovs-events link status OPEN

      DMA Functionality

      The DMA Local Agent will provide the following features:

      • Local processing of metrics – Allows metrics to be sampled at a higher rate than storage rate for detection of short-lived conditions.
      • Runtime configuration of collectd – Collectd configuration can be managed remotely with the Local Agent providing the writing of collectd configuration and collectd restart.
      • Simple OpenStack metadata discovery – Provide runtime information related to the mapping between virtual and physical elements.  The metadata can be attached to metric sent by collectd.
      Release GXX

      Image ModifiedBAROMETER-95 - The DMA project will provide additional functional for the Barometer project OPEN

      DMA ContainerAdd DMA container buildRelease GXX

      Image ModifiedBAROMETER-94 - The DMA project will exist as a container separate from the collectd container OPEN

      Collectd ovs_stats plugin does not collect dpdk interface statistics if under bond interface

      The ovs stats plugin collects the right set of data in case the dpdk interfaces are mapped directly under the ovs bridge. But for the use case where a bonding interface is needed underneath the ovs bridge, ovs stats cannot pull the dpdk interface statistics.

       


      Release GXX


      Image ModifiedBAROMETER-92 - Collectd ovs_stats plugin does not collect dpdk interface statistics if under bond interface OPEN


    3. Original plan stalled by no release from Collectd.  
    4. virt plugin enhancements – Complete waiting on release
    5. ovs-dpdk-stats – 
    6. DMA Functionality - In progress
    7. DMA Container - In progress
    8. Collectd ovs_stats plugin does not collect dpdk interface statistics if under bond interface – completed waiting on release

  2. Participation in https://openmetrics.io/

...

  • Barometer for system tests/debugging.
    • Look at network interfaces, OVS stats, etc., to track whats happening in an openstack deployment
  • Need to know if there are any openstack deployments already available in opnfv pods
  • Have a real time demo to show graphana dashboards in opnfv pods

...


Updates:

-       Changed the Kolla container to include almost all Collectd plugins, taken from latest stable branch

...

  • Have 4 to 5 reviews pending in Barometer gerrit
  • Require reviews

 


  • Gambia release behindRelease Plan Items
  • https://jira.opnfv.org/browse/BAROMETER-99
  • https://jira.opnfv.org/browse/BAROMETER-96
  • Ansible scripts update
    • https://gerrit.opnfv.org/gerrit/#/c/61575/5
    • Need to have the experimental Barometer container
      • Need a place to send interested parties so they can try out newest features
      • Early feedback is key
      • Showing the host naming in virt plugin in experimental container would be good.
      • If we have hardware, we can have virtualized RDO installed quickly in barometer opnfv pod
        • A simple 1 controller/1 compute node running barometer container each, also on the pod host itself would be good to show metrics collection across all layers.
        • Listing the steps in barometer wiki would be helpful
        • Possibly have a packstack installation on a single machine.
  • Prometheus and Barometer
    • Should Barometer participate in the standardization effort under way in Prometheus.  (Yes!)
          • Driven by Prometheus for data format
          • Mentioned at Fosdem & Prometheus conference
          • Standard is named as open metrics, submitted to IEEE
          • Gone quite far, need 3 implementations of metrics format for this standard
          • Google is doing one implementation, 2nd one by Prometheus community
          • Trying to standardize data exchange format
          • While Prometheus only supports metrics, standards also supports logs.
          • Value of all this info is the correlation part
          • Matthias would send more info.
          • Need to make sure it wont impact our implementations of metrics in hardware/infrastructure level
          • The community is not generally attuned to lower layers.
    • Bring Barometer’s experience in monitoring the infrastructure.
    • End result could be too PaaSy ;)
