Hi Jay,

Thanks for your comment. You suggestion is good but I am wondering why
we cannot use or leverage Ceilometer to monitor infrastructure-related,
as it can used to monitor tenant-related things.

You *could* use Ceilometer for this, sure. But I just don't recommend it. For performance reasons.

Hi Folks,



Are there any guide or examples to show how to produce a new event or

notification add add a handler for this event in ceilometer?



I am asked to implement OpenStack service monitoring which will send an

event and trigger the handler once a service, say nova-compute, crashes,

in a short time. L



The link (http://docs.openstack.org/developer/ceilometer/events.html)

does a good job on the explanation of concept and hence I know that I

need to emit notification to message queue and ceilometer-collector will

process them and generate events but it is far from real implementations.



I would not use Ceilometer for this, as it is more tenant-facing than

infrastructure service facing. Instead, I would use a tried-and-true

solution like Nagios and NRPE checks. Here's an example of such a check

for a keystone endpoint:
