Lightning Talk Notes

  • What is Barometer?
    • A project for building a scalable metrics platform for NFV environments and enables the monitoring of infrastructure that hosts our virtual network functions (VNFs).
    • We can monitor platform components like CPU, memory, load, cache, thermals, fan speeds, voltages and machine check exceptions
    • We’re including both the tools such as collectd and the installation utilities along with the definition of metrics and events that are critical for NFV infrastructure monitoring, because the tools without definitions is not a solution.
    • Focus is on collection of metrics, not necessarily the storage or analysis of data. We leave that up to higher level orchestration systems to leverage the data for business logic and decision making. We can leverage things like machine learning and big data analytics to provide proactive changes rather than reactive (traditional monitoring), but our involvement in that is at the collection of metrics and events.
    • Standards involvement -- TST_008 / IFA_027
  • Why use barometer?
    • Leverages collectd for metrics and events gathering. It’s robust with a strong upstream community and has been around for several years, meaning that it’s a stable application to build from with a lot of functionality.
    • Extensible through the plugin framework, and we’ve been adding functionality over the last several months to solve for use cases that weren’t previously solved for.
    • Can be used wherever Linux is available, including whitebox switches and routers.
  • What are we solving for?
    • Providing an implementation of collectd in cloud platform environments that are implementing for NFV so that we can find deficiencies and further enhance collectd through the plugin system
  • Who is using barometer?
    • Red Hat is leveraging the work done in the barometer project within the service assurance framework in order to provide the various metrics and events required by telco operators, edge providers, cloud providers, and other highly available environments.
    • Used by both OPNFV Yardstick for test analysis and OPNFV Bottlenecks
  • How can I use barometer?
    • Barometer is being packaged as a Docker container, so it’s easy to install into your environment without a lot of risk.
    • Also have influxdb container image to show an implementation with data storage

November 27, 2018

November 20, 2018

  • There's going to be a Plugfest in early January. Unclear if anyone from Barometer is going to attend
  • Release plan discussion
    • Barometer Release Plan
      • Improvements in documentation
      • Add support for alternative TSDB like prometheus
      • apex integration?
      • install mcelog manually/from ansible; Ubuntu 18.04 apparently dropped the daemon from default install
      • change ansible playbooks to allow configuration of "container type" to be installed: master (from collectd master), experimental (collectd master + selected patches), stable (latest collectd release)
      • Barometer cloud native support: gRPC plugin of collectd to integrate with projects like clover


November 13, 2018

  • Builds mostly working.

    • DPDK still not installed correctly, however, have been able to merge remaining Gerrit items as they are not dependent on DPDK.  

    • Trevor is still working on the getting DPDK ready.

  • Merged blocked items into stable/gambia

  • Release Items

    • Writing release notes for gambia

    • Was able to complete Milestone 7, Stable Branch after build fix

    • Updating Milestone 9, Final documentation

    • Gambia 7.0 was 11/2

    • Gambia 7.1

      • Complete Testing 12/5

      • Update Docs / JIRA Cleanup 12/6

      • Tag Repos / Release 12/7

      • Release Report

    • For those projects that publish docker images, I have noticed that there are some Gambia jobs missing.

    • X86_64 (from releng/jjb/releng/opnfv-docker.yaml):

    • ·         Barometer

    • ·         Clover

    • ·         NFVBench


    • Basically, you just need to edit the file and change frasier to gambia for your specific artifacts.

  • Collectd Updates

    • Octo has been providing reviews

    • Rubenik as well

  • Election

    • Unless I missed a nomination, Matthias Runge will be the sole candidate.

    • Barometer committers will be able to vote on a Gerrit Issue.

    • Since there is only one candidate.  Simple voting.

    • Assumption is that Matthias will preside over the meeting next week

    • Need to organize a JIRA cleanup with Matthias and go over different aspects.

  • FOSDEM

    • Need a room for meetup

    • Nothing available at Red hat

    • Intel, still checking

    • Around 20 people

    • Best idea is to rent a room (share expense between companies)

    • Contact Emma (FOSDEM)

    • Contact Google as well (Octo)

  • Cloud Native

    • Clover

    • gRPC call

    • Prometheus collection

    • ISTIO / Service Mesh

Notes from last meeting:

Demo from Barometer:

-       Possibly create a demo and record it?

-       Demo around containers/VM with metrics

-       Float around few ideas, get comments over next calls

-       Find a new way to use Barometer, would be good

-       Demo ideas:

  • 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 

Agenda:

  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

      BAROMETER-99 - Virt plugin enhancement -- VM names OPEN

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

      BAROMETER-96 - Enable OVS-DPDK PMD Statistics OPEN

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

      BAROMETER-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

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

      DMA ContainerAdd DMA container buildRelease GXX

      BAROMETER-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


      BAROMETER-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/

Updates from last week:

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

  • Plugins are still taken from RPM build, relying on release version of Collectd
  • Not included plugins would gaming plugins, etc.
  • This is a great progress

-       No new updates about community release of Collectd

  • Intel team will prioritize backporting once Ansible script work is done

-       Collectd code reviews:

  • Lot of PRs, will take some time
  • The DPDK patch got merged, need to backport to 5.8
  • Sunku will ask the patch author to backport

-       Ansible scripts work:

  • Testing/validation on Ubuntu 16.04, 18.04 & Centos 7.5
  • Centos 7.3 had docker issues, related to docker missing packages
  • Latest docker Images is based on 7.5.3
  • Centos 7.5 images (qcow2) have different naming scheme, very similar to Ubuntu 18.04
  • There shouldn’t be any regressions, upgrading from 7.3 to 7.5.
  • We can look in to if we need to on 7.3
  • Require your help to review as patches are upstreamed

-       Milestone 8 – Oct 30th

  • Its not being pushed back

-       Review help:

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

    • 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.

09/18/2018

    • Introductions: Vinay Kumar
      • Joined with RedHat, Metrics & Monitoring.
      • Looking in to Gnocchi, AODH, Ceilometer, etc. Interested in integrating Collectd with OpenStack.
    • Necessity of gRPC interface for collectd.
      • Clover project and cloud native WG have proposal to integrate most of OPNFV projects with gRPC interface.
      • GRPC is hot, good thing is binary format is very compact, while http is very verbose using up a lot of bandwidth
      • ONAP talks a lot on using GRPC instead of kafka
      • No downside on having GRPC
      • Good to float the idea within Collectd community
      • Florian & others added in write_prometheus, to enable cloud native
        • It creates a scrape target
        • Superior from Collectd exporter from Prometheus itself
      • Real key is to provide correlation between app metrics and infrastructure metrics. Have them be in common data definitions & timestamps.
        • Collectd timestamps are when metrics are generated
        • Prometheus timestamp is when it gets scraped
        • There is a disconnect
      • We need to keep reminding CN folks about correlation on time/locality, between virtual/physical
      • Need to check for direct integration between Jaeger and Collectd
      • A list of metrics/capabilities through node_exporter in Prometheus might be helpful.
        • Strengths, missing metrics?
        • Get stuff in to node_exporter?
        • CN folks might know as they are from different community than OpenStack, as there are different tools, etc.
      • Aaron to help us out here to get started! 
      • Al to contribute here.
    • Importance of having “hostname” as uniform reporting instead of IPv4 address:
      • Memcached plugin is special -> provide both hostname & IPv4 address. Opened a PR in PuppetCollectd to fix proper reporting.
      • It would be good to have additional text along with hostname, like rack name, tag datacenters
      • Need to work with plugin authors

§  Write redis plugin enable

§  Need +1

o   https://gerrit.opnfv.org/gerrit/#/c/59209/

o   Upcoming milestones

§  MS6 -- August 24

·        Test cases implemented, preliminary documentation completed, and stable branch open

·        Need to have development “mostly” complete by then

[ELF] Major feature should at least be proposed and partly reviewed at this time.

Functest support should be mostly done (tests upstreamed for collectd-plugins), bug fixes are okay after this date but no new tests.

§  MS7 -- September 14

·        Stable branch window close

·        Need feedback on the following list of collect plugins

o   https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=POST&bug_status=MODIFIED&bug_status=ON_DEV&bug_status=ON_QA&bug_status=VERIFIED&component=collectd&known_name=collectd-all&list_id=9166173&product=Red%20Hat%20OpenStack&query_based_on=collectd-all&query_format=advanced

o   Feedback will help prioritize work

·        Need to offer help to collectd to get the next release out (5.9)  

o   Contact maintainers and ask “what can I do to help?”

o   Also, join #collectd on Freenode if possible

[ELF] Not likely to be available for Gambia, given that we would need to provide config, docs, validation in Barometer once it is closed; However, we should continue to help.

·        Openstack voting has begun

o   https://www.openstack.org/summit/berlin-2018/vote-for-speakers/#/22013

o   https://www.openstack.org/summit/berlin-2018/vote-for-speakers/#/22000

[ELF] There was a very short voting period this time around, and it’s already closed

AOB:

-        Collectd container split: Need to check whether the separate container build jobs (master and stable) are configured correctly; so we can start adding config and build support for newer features (Emma/Kamil)

      • Need categories

      • Always about latency for faults and metrics

      • Framework and edge computing use cases would be good

    • Is VES a good fit?

      • Good for cloud-native

      • What is a cloud?  What value does opensource ecosystem get from:

        • Common telemetry date model

        • Consistent set of mechanisms by which data delivered to collector

    • How lightweight?

      • Less than 1% CPU, and 5% memory

      • Two VES encodings: C and Java

      • Goku: tokenized VES data structure

      • Overhead of data and complexity of stack

      • Go from binary XML to tokenized JSON

  • DMA Project discussion

    • Positive feedback on DMA proposal.  Want to move forward.

    • Work should be done in a separate container.

  • Standards

    • Al has been reviewing Alok’s VES proposals.  Found some VMWare specific items. Vendor-specific provisions are discouraged.  Al to talk with Alok ;).

    • VES is starting to incorporate some TOSCA information.

  • Collectd

    • Emma suggested that all collectd PRs be from the same fork, Barometer, in order to make collectd aware of who the reviews are for.

    • Also, should have more Red Hat people reviewing collectd.  Need to talk with local Red Hatters.

  • VES

    • Bryan returned.  Wants to keep the VES agent development moving forward.  Did not know about DDS messaging stuff in ONAP. However, see’s that Kafka is not set in stone.  What to do at the edge.

  • General

    • Next week I will be out.  Andrew Bays will run meeting.

  • DMA Project

    • Presentation given by Tomofumi Hayashi.  Slides available on the wiki.

    • Major takeaways…

      • Run time reconfiguration of collectd.  There were some questions as to whether this should be a feature of something like an Ansible playbook.

      • Topology annotation.  Questions about security and what information would be included.  It was stated that only infrastructure information would be annotated.  

      • Data reduction and analysis at the edge.

      • DMA project should be an add-on.  Might need to be able to “unwind” project in the future.

    • OPNFV Bottlenecks project using Barometer container

  • Development

    • Thanks to Emma for updating the docs and helping track down Funtest issues
