Chapter 3. Managing alarms You can use the Telemetry Alarming service (aodh) to trigger actions based on defined rules against metric or event data collected by Ceilometer or Gnocchi. Alarms can be in one of the following states: ok The metric or event is in an acceptable state. firing The metric or event is outside of the defined ok state. insufficient data The alarm state is unknown. This can be for several reasons, for example, there is no data for the requested granularity, the check has not been executed yet, and so on. 3.1. Viewing existing alarms You can view existing Telemetry alarm information and list the meters assigned to a resource to check the current state of the metrics. Procedure List the existing Telemetry alarms: # openstack alarm list +--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------------+----------------------------+-------------------+----------+---------+ | alarm_id | type | name | state | severity | enabled | +--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------------+----------------------------+-------------------+----------+---------+ | 922f899c-27c8-4c7d-a2cf-107be51ca90a | gnocchi_aggregation_by_resources_threshold | iops-monitor-read-requests | insufficient data | low | True | +--------------------------------------+--------------------------------------------+----------------------------+-------------------+----------+---------+ To list the meters assigned to a resource, specify the UUID of the resource.

Creating an alarm Use the Telemetry Alarming service (aodh) to create an alarm that triggers when a particular condition is met, for example, when a threshold value is reached. In this example, the alarm activates and adds a log entry when the average CPU utilization for an individual instance exceeds 80%. Procedure Archive policies are pre-populated during the deployment process and you rarely need to create a new archive policy. However, if there is no configured archive policy, you must create one. To create an archive policy that creates metrics for 5s * 86400 points (5 days), use the following command: # openstack archive-policy create <name> \ -d granularity:5s,points:86400 \ -b 3 -m mean -m rate:mean + Replace <name> with the name of the archive policy. Note Ensure that you set the value of the evaluation period for the Telemetry Alarming service to an integer greater than 60. The Ceilometer polling interval is linked to the evaluation period. Ensure that you set the Ceilometer polling interval value to a number between 60 and 600 and ensure that the value is greater than the value of the evaluation period for the Telemetry Alarming service. If the Ceilometer polling interval is too low, it can severely impact system load. Create an alarm and use a query to isolate the specific ID of the instance for monitoring purposes. The ID of the instance in the following example is 94619081-abf5-4f1f-81c7-9cedaa872403. Note To calculate the threshold value, use the following formula: 1,000,000,000 x {granularity} x {percentage_in_decimal} # openstack alarm create \ --type gnocchi_aggregation_by_resources_threshold \ --name cpu_usage_high \ --granularity 5 --metric cpu \ --threshold 48000000000 \ --aggregation-method rate:mean \ --resource-type instance \ --query '{"=": {"id": "94619081-abf5-4f1f-81c7-9cedaa872403"}}' --alarm-action 'log://' +---------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------+ | Field | Value | +---------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------+ | aggregation_method | rate:mean | | alarm_actions | [u'log://'] | | alarm_id | b794adc7-ed4f-4edb-ace4-88cbe4674a94 | | comparison_operator | eq | | description | gnocchi_aggregation_by_resources_threshold alarm rule | | enabled | True | | evaluation_periods | 1 | | granularity | 5 | | insufficient_data_actions | [] | | metric | cpu | | name | cpu_usage_high | | ok_actions | [] | | project_id | 13c52c41e0e543d9841a3e761f981c20 | | query | {"=": {"id": "94619081-abf5-4f1f-81c7-9cedaa872403"}} | | repeat_actions | False | | resource_type | instance | | severity | low | | state | insufficient data | | state_timestamp | 2016-12-09T05:18:53.326000 | | threshold | 48000000000.0 | | time_constraints | [] | | timestamp | 2016-12-09T05:18:53.326000 | | type | gnocchi_aggregation_by_resources_threshold | | user_id | 32d3f2c9a234423cb52fb69d3741dbbc | +---------------------------+-------------------------------------------------------+ 3.3. Editing an alarm When you edit an alarm, you increase or decrease the value threshold of the alarm. Procedure To update the threshold value, use the openstack alarm update command. For example, to increase the alarm threshold to 75%, use the following command: # openstack alarm update --name cpu_usage_high --threshold 75 3.4. Disabling an alarm You can disable and enable alarms. Procedure Disable the alarm: 3.5. Deleting an alarm Use the openstack alarm delete command to delete an alarm. Procedure To delete an alarm, enter the following command: 3.6. Example: Monitoring the disk activity of instances This example demonstrates how to use an alarm that is part of the Telemetry Alarming service to monitor the cumulative disk activity for all the instances contained within a particular project. Procedure Review the existing projects and select the appropriate UUID of the project that you want to monitor. This example uses the admin tenant: USD openstack project list +----------------------------------+----------+ | ID | Name | +----------------------------------+----------+ | 745d33000ac74d30a77539f8920555e7 | admin | | 983739bb834a42ddb48124a38def8538 | services | | be9e767afd4c4b7ead1417c6dfedde2b | demo | +----------------------------------+----------+ Use the project UUID to create an alarm that analyses the sum() of all read requests generated by the instances in the admin tenant. You can further restrain the query by using the --query parameter: # openstack alarm create \ --type gnocchi_aggregation_by_resources_threshold \ --name iops-monitor-read-requests \ --metric disk.read.requests.rate \ --threshold 42000 \ --aggregation-method sum \ --resource-type instance \ --query '{"=": {"project_id": "745d33000ac74d30a77539f8920555e7"}}' +---------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+ | Field | Value | +---------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+ | aggregation_method | sum | | alarm_actions | [] | | alarm_id | 192aba27-d823-4ede-a404-7f6b3cc12469 | | comparison_operator | eq | | description | gnocchi_aggregation_by_resources_threshold alarm rule | | enabled | True | | evaluation_periods | 1 | | granularity | 60 | | insufficient_data_actions | [] | | metric | disk.read.requests.rate | | name | iops-monitor-read-requests | | ok_actions | [] | | project_id | 745d33000ac74d30a77539f8920555e7 | | query | {"=": {"project_id": "745d33000ac74d30a77539f8920555e7"}} | | repeat_actions | False | | resource_type | instance | | severity | low | | state | insufficient data | | state_timestamp | 2016-11-08T23:41:22.919000 | | threshold | 42000.0 | | time_constraints | [] | | timestamp | 2016-11-08T23:41:22.919000 | | type | gnocchi_aggregation_by_resources_threshold | | user_id | 8c4aea738d774967b4ef388eb41fef5e | +---------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+ 3.7.

For example, 5 minutes aggregation for 1 hour + 1 hour aggregation over a month. The granularity value must match the duration described in the archive policy. evaluation-periods: Number of granularity periods that need to pass before the alarm triggers. For example, if you set this value to 2, the CPU usage must be over 80% for two polling periods before the alarm triggers. [u'log://']: When you set alarm_actions or ok_actions to [u'log://'] , events, for example, the alarm is triggered or returns to a normal state, are recorded to the aodh log file. Note You can define different actions to run when an alarm is triggered (alarm_actions), and when it returns to a normal state (ok_actions), such as a webhook URL. 3.8. Viewing alarm history To check if a particular alarm has been triggered, you can query the alarm history and view the event information.
