Configuring the Monitoring (monasca) agent (optional)¶

Configuring target hosts¶

Modify /etc/openstack_deploy/conf.d/monasca.yml by adding a list of monasca-agent-infra_hosts, containing all the hosts that needs to be monitored:

In monasca.yml:

[...]

monasca-agent-infra_hosts:
  infra01:
    ip: INFRA01_IP_ADDRESS
  infra02:
    ip: INFRA02_IP_ADDRESS
  infra03:
    ip: INFRA03_IP_ADDRESS

Replace *_IP_ADDRESS with the IP address of the br-mgmt container management bridge on each target host.

Setting up monasca-agent¶

Build the monasca-agent packages/virtual environment (if not built already) and run its playbook:

# cd /opt/openstack-ansible/playbooks
# openstack-ansible repo-build.yml
# openstack-ansible os-monasca-agent-install.yml
