A cinder-volume service can have multiple backends. - pool: A logical concept to describe a set of storage resource that can be used to serve core Cinder requests. A backend can have multiple pools, each with different characteristics. Cinder-volume services are named taking these 3 names and joining them like: host@backend#pool As for the data that is being reported, this is mostly explained in the latest spec [1], except the virtual_free which is basically the available space taking into account the over provisioning. More information on the pools can be found in the Juno specs [2]. I hope this helps. Cheers, Gorka.

[openstack-dev] [cinder][ceilometer] cinder capacity notifications
hi, i'm attempting to add support for the cinder capacity notifications that were added a while back[1]. adding measurement support in ceilometer is pretty simple where in most cases you just add an entry to a yaml file[2]. the problem i have right now is i have no idea what resource these measurement are measuring so i'm unsure how to name the measurement in ceilometer so a user can understand what it's measuring. the following are probably stupid questions but i see it measures two different resource types, a 'pool' and a 'backend' and they are ultimately tied to a host. are these measuring the amount of disk on each host? our pools confined to a host? anyone with better knowledge is welcomed to take over my patch.

Re: [openstack-dev] [cinder] [ceilometer]
The new notification reports kinds of capacity information, includes total, free, allocated, provisioned, visual_free. Detailed info please see the following specs: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/192542/2/specs/liberty/cinder-capacity-notifications.rst https://review.openstack.org/#/c/249932/1/specs/mitaka/capacity-headroom.rst https://review.openstack.org/#/c/206923/ Lisa -Original Message- From: Julien Danjou [mailto:jul...@danjou.info] Sent: Thursday, December 8, 2016 5:42 PM To: Jiong Liu Cc: openstack-dev@lists.openstack.org Subject: Re: [openstack-dev] [cinder] [ceilometer] On Thu, Dec 08 2016, Jiong Liu wrote: Hi Jeremy, If I'm not mistaken, there's a new pollster in Ocata that uses the Cinder API to get the metrics now, so I think the volume usage audit is getting useless. > Hello Cinder/Ceilometer community, > > > > Is there any guideline on using `cinder-volume-usage-audit` command? > > > > Search through cinder/ceilometer logs, I find some messages are sent > to ceilometer-collector. > > How do I check the output of this command in ceilometer?

[openstack-dev] [cinder] [ceilometer]
Hello Cinder/Ceilometer community, Is there any guideline on using `cinder-volume-usage-audit` command? Search through cinder/ceilometer logs, I find some messages are sent to ceilometer-collector. How do I check the output of this command in ceilometer? Do you have any suggestion? Looking forward to your comments. Thanks.
