I would love to test the ceilometer on KVM

Hi Bruno, 





We just started implementing the Ceilometer Hyper-V inspector for the compute agent (see hyper-v-agent blueprint).

Let me know if you'd like to help in testing it. :-)





Thanks,





Alessandro

Dear Stackers,



Please I'd like to ask your expertise on ceilometer to try

an approach for monitoring a compute nova running hyper-v



I got a running environment of devstack with KVM on a single-node

machine being fully monitored by ceilometer. I'm being able to

access its API to see the data collected as well.



On the other hand, I'm using Cloudbase's (cloudbase.it) Openstack Compute

Hyper-V Installer (driver), which greatly help me deploying VMs from

the devstack

node to the hyper-v server. All is working smoothly.



So far, in the irc channel #openstack-ceilometer, I got to know that

ceilometer, just like collectd, uses libvirt to query the hypervisors

for data (thanks dhellmann !). BUT if check in the libvirt.org site,

it's being said

that there's support for Hyper-V: http://libvirt.org/drvhyperv.html

(given a uri to connect to it).



1. So I'm wondering if all I need to get Ceilometer working for windows

would be compiling it under my windows envionment with mingw chaintool,

for example?



2. Has anyone ever tried this or got any other way to make it data collection

from hyper-v successful ?



3. Do you guys have any other approach that you would suggest (installing

snmp on each of the cloud servers/instances is not an option) ?



Please, share your thoughts. I'd greatly appreciate it.



Thank you very very much.
