Team and repository tagspython-watcherclientClient for resource optimization service for OpenStack.OpenStack Watcher provides a flexible and scalable resource optimization
service for multi-tenant OpenStack-based clouds.
Watcher provides a complete optimization loop-including everything from a
metrics receiver, complex event processor and profiler, optimization processor
and an action plan applier. This provides a robust framework to realize a wide
range of cloud optimization goals, including the reduction of data center
operating costs, increased system performance via intelligent virtual machine
migration, increased energy efficiency and more!Free software: Apache licenseWiki:https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/WatcherSource:https://opendev.org/openstack/python-watcherclientBugs:https://bugs.launchpad.net/watcherInstallationInstall the prerequisite packagesOn Ubuntu (tested on 14.04-64)sudo apt-get install python-dev libssl-dev python-pip git-core libmysqlclient-dev libffi-devOn Fedora-based distributions e.g., Fedora/RHEL/CentOS/Scientific Linux (tested on CentOS 6.5)sudo yum install python-virtualenv openssl-devel python-pip git gcc libffi-devel mysql-devel postgresql-develOn openSUSE-based distributions (SLES 12, openSUSE 13.1, Factory or Tumbleweed)sudo zypper install gcc git libmysqlclient-devel libopenssl-devel postgresql-devel python-devel python-pipInstall the Watcher clientYou can install the Watcher CLI with the following command:sudo pip install python-watcherclientYou can also use theOpenStack clientwith Watcher (our watcher plugin for OpenStack client is included in the
