Hi Vijay, thanks for your reply.
  If I understand correctly, the existing/planned collector in DCAE for now is 
only VES-collector, is it right? Do you publish those documents and demo cases 
material any where so that I can go through first and then discuss with you and 
DCAE team. Besides ‘measurementsForVfScalingFields’, is there any example for 
’thresholdcrossingfields’?

Yes,  DCAE can encompass different type of collectors. The ceilometers stats 
can be directly collector by specific mS  but this was not something we have 
planned for R1.

The VES specification does accommodate a broad type of events type. There are 
already some libraries distributed part of OPNV for vendors to onboard into 
VES. If The VNF/agent can send the stats “measurementsForVfScalingFields” then 
existing collector (VEScollector) can be leveraged.

Specific to this topic – VES integration, we did meet with Xin Hui from VmVARE 
and members from Chinamobile recently and  Alok from VES team have shared the 
documents and demo cases material. If you would like – we can arrange for 
separate meeting to discuss the same or cover this topic part of DCAE weekly 
call.

Thanks,
Vijay

Hi Daniel,
   Let’s say, if I write an agent that can receive ceilometer alarms and then 
transform to the format that ves can recognize, is it doable? If this is 
doable, is there any example that I can follow? I notice that there are some 
fields in ves like thresholdcrossingfields that might be  a good place to put 
ceilometer alarm datas, but I don’t find any example there.

You would need a listener added to dcae to receive these events. One may exist 
(check with someone in the dcae project) but we chose ves for release 1 as it 
allows the vnfs to send things that would: not be monitorable in the VIM (app 
health for example),are receivable if one does not have access to the vim (ie 
on rackspace) or if one does not run on openstack (ie azure).

Subject: [onap-discuss] Using ceilometer to scale out VF module

Hi,
   I’m wondering is there any workable solutions to integrate ceilometer’s 
alarm to scale out vDNS demo. I notice that for now we are using ves client to 
send measurementsForVfScalingFields to DCAE collector, and DCAE will trigger a 
policy action to scale out a new instance. But ceilometer already do the 
calculation and will send out an alarm when metrics exceed some level of 
threshold, is it possible to let ceilometer directly send an alarm to DCAE and 
then trigger a policy action?
