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

[GUPTA, ALOK]

Oliver:

We do have TCA domain already defined and included in the current VES 
requirements document. The events would be sent to DCAE collector using REST 
API (please note username/password and FQDN would need to be configured in the 
Nagios sending the events and the info needs to be communicated to DCAE 
controller and collector receiving the events). The DCAE collector will place 
the events on DMaPP.

In addition we would need yaml on-boarding file so we can create policies and 
would need a clamp flow processing the event using the policies.

We don’t have examples for TCA domain, as we normally get raw performance data 
in the measurementforVnfScaling domain and then we have internal micro-service 
that generates TCAs.

We just presented a paper and demo at OPNFV that uses events from ONAP 
reference VNFs,  vFW and vLB and uses collectD Agent from Intel to get 
baremetal events in to DCAE collector. The link to demo is:  
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zoxcj4mwUwU.

If people are interested in working the details within ONAP, I will be start SA 
discussion group soon and we can help answer question or work the details in 
the lab.

Is that something you guys have looked into. Can you respond on onap-discuss if 
you did?

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.

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?

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

[Ethan Lynn]

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

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

[DRAGOSH, PAMELA L (PAM)]

Hi Ethan,

I believe the DCAE team has collectors that take alarms/traps/etc. in their 
native format and then subsequently normalizes/converts  them into VES events. 
That is the idea behind collectors.
Those VES events then get propagated throughout the DCAE framework, ultimately 
to Policy. I would contact the DCAE PTL to understand that fully.

Regards,

Pam

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

[ROSE, DANIEL V]

A dcae collector takes in some input (ceilometer) and transforms it into an 
output dcae can understand – there is a dcae format (which I am admittedly not 
familiar with). That is the proper way, rather than mapping from ceilometer to 
ves to dcae format so I don’t think you will find an example for anything else
