Currently, Ceilometer checks the state of floating IPs and Neutron VPNaaS VPNs and does not generate samples if they have a status value of None, leaving a warning in the Ceilometer logs. In addition, VPNs are also dropped if they have status ERROR. There are two major issues with this: * It makes visibility of resources with unknown/invalid/error state worse, since samples are not being generated for affected resources at all. * Downstream rating/billing services such as CloudKitty prefer to know everything about as many resources as possible, so business logic can be implemented around that information. Sometimes resources should be billed even if they are in ERROR state, because they still consume resources. This patch changes the ip.floating and network.services.vpn pollsters to always sample all found floating IPs and VPNs. If they have status ERROR, the sample volume is set to 7. For resources with status None the sample volume is set to -1, same as when an unknown non-None state is found. Neutron FWaaS firewalls also implement filtering by state, but as those meters are deprecated due to the retirement of Neutron FWaaS, they were not fixed.

upgrade:
|
|
- |
|
|
The ``ip.floating`` and ``network.services.vpn`` pollsters now publish
|
|
samples for all found floating IPs and VPNs, even if they are known
|
|
to have an unknown state, when they would previously be dropped.
|
|
The volume of samples for such floating IPs and VPNs will be set to
|
|
``-1``.
|
|
This improves visibility of floating IPs and VPNs with unknown states,
|
|
allowing them to be monitored via samples and the Gnocchi metrics,
|
|
making it easier to discover such resources for troubleshooting.
|
|
It also moves some of the "business logic" for downstream rating/billing
|
|
services such as CloudKitty out of Ceilometer itself.
|
|
- |
|
|
The ``network.services.vpn`` now publishes samples for VPNs with
|
|
status ``ERROR``, when they would previously be dropped.
|
|
The sample volume for VPNs in ``ERROR`` state is ``7``.
