could you open a bug on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ceilometer/+bugs?orderby=-id&start=0 and reference this thread

i would also check to see if ceilometer-api logs have any noticeable warning/errors. it's possible a datatype is being restricted there as well.

thanks

"average" fields in statistics query

which backend are you using? this potentially may be a bug where we're hitting 
some size limit restricted by datatype.

Hi

I have observed "inf" values for "sum" and "average" fields in a ceilometer statistics query on one of my custom meter 
as shown below. I have also verified the samples query for this meter and there are 1544 samples (output shown below) with all of them having value 
as "150.0". So ideally the "Avg" filed should be "150.0" in this scenario. Could anyone tell me in what scenario we 
will see these two fields as "inf" in the meter statistics query? Plz let me know if you need more details or logs here. Appreciate your 
help.

Thanks
