This ZenPack allows for monitoring of OpenStack from a service provider perspective. This means that in addition to the user-oriented components supported in the regular OpenStack ZenPack (instances, flavors, images), the underlying OpenStack servers and software are monitored. Once the OpenStack ZenPack is installed and you can begin monitoring by going to the infrastructure screen and clicking the normal button for adding devices. You'll find a new option labeled, "Add OpenStack Endpoint (Infrastructure)." Choose that option and you'll be presented with a dialog asking for the following inputs. Device To Create - name to use for this device in zenoss. Should not be an actual hostname, since that name will be used when the host is registered as a linux device. Auth URL - A keystone URL, such as http://<hostname>:5000/v2.0/ Username, Password / API Key, Project/Tenant ID - *Administrative* credentials to your zenoss instance. Region Name - choose the correct region from the dropdown. You may only choose one, so each region you wish to manage must be registered as a separate endpoint in zenoss. Ceilometer URL - Will auto-populate based on the other selections. Once you click Add, Zenoss will contact the OpenStack API and discover servers, images and flavors. Once it is complete you'll find a new device in the OpenStack device class with the same name as the hostname or IP you entered into the dialog. Click into this new device to see everything that was discovered. The following types of elements are discovered. Tenants Instances (Servers) vNICs Images Flavors Nova API Endpoints Regions Availability Zones Hosts Nova Services (processes supporting nova servers) Hypervisors The following component level metrics are collected. Instances CPU Utilization (percent) Disk Requests (requests/sec) Disk IO Rate (bytes/sec) Vnics Network Packet Rate (packets/sec) Network Throughput (bytes/sec) Hosts (Zenoss Linux OS monitoring) Load Average (processes) CPU Utilization (percent) Free Memory (bytes) Free Swap (bytes) IO (sectors/sec) Nova Services (Zenoss Process monitoring) CPU Utilization (percent) Memory Utilization (bytes) Process Count (processes) The following device level metrics are collected. Flavors Total (count) Images Total (count) Total count per image state (count) Servers Total (count) Total count per server state (count) Queues Event (count) Performance (count)
This project is a Zenoss extension (ZenPack) that allows for monitoring of OpenStack. This means that you can monitor the flavors, images and servers a user or consumer perspective. OpenStack Compute v1.1 (Cactus) is known to be supported. Specifically this means that Rackspace's CloudServers can be monitored. In the future it is likely that support for monitoring OpenStack Storage (Swift) will be added. OpenStack is a global collaboration of developers and cloud computing technologists producing the ubiquitous open source cloud computing platform for public and private clouds. The project aims to deliver solutions for all types of clouds by being simple to implement, massively scalable, and feature rich. The technology consists of a series of interrelated projects delivering various components for a cloud infrastructure solution. Once the OpenStack ZenPack is installed you can begin monitoring by going to the infrastructure screen and clicking the normal button for adding devices. You'll find a new option labeled, "Add OpenStack." Choose that option and you'll be presented with a dialog asking for the following inputs. 1. Username - Same username used to login to OpenStack web interface 2. API Key - Can be found by going to "Your Account/API Access" 3. Project ID - This can be left blank if you don't know what it is 4. Auth URL - For Rackspace this would be https://auth.api.rackspacecloud.com/v1.0 5. Region Name - This can be left blank if you don't know what it is Once you click Add, Zenoss will contact the OpenStack API and discover servers, images and flavors. Once it is complete you'll find a new device in the OpenStack device class with the same name as the hostname or IP you entered into the dialog. Click into this new device to see everything that was discovered. The following types of elements are discovered. * Servers * Images * Flavors The following metrics are collected. * Total Servers and Servers by State o States: Active, Build, Rebuild, Suspended, Queue Resize, Prep Resize, Resize, Verify Resize, Password, Rescue, Reboot, Hard Reboot, Delete IP, Unknown, Other * Total Images and Images by State o States: Active, Saving, Preparing, Queued, Failed, Unknown, Other * Total Flavors Status monitoring is performed on servers and images with the following mapping of state to Zenoss event severity. Servers State to Severity Mapping: * Reboot, Hard Reboot, Build, Rebuild, Rescue, Unknown == Critical * Resize == Error * Prep Resize, Delete IP == Warning * Suspended, Queue Resize, Verify Resize, Password == Info * Active == Clear Images State to Severity Mapping: * Failed, Unknown == Critical * Queued, Saving, Preparing == Info * Active == Clear If you are also using Zenoss to monitor the guest operating system running within the server Zenoss will present the graphs for that operating system when the graphs option is chosen for the OpenStack server.
MySqlMonitor provides a method for pulling performance metrics from the MySQL database server (http://www.mysql.com/) directly into Zenoss without requiring the use of an agent. This is accomplished by utilizing the MySQL client library to connect to the database remotely. The following metrics will be collected and graphed for MySQL server. * Command Statistics (SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE) * Select Statistics (Scan, Range Check, Range Join, Full Join) * Handler Statistics (Keyed & Unkeyed Reads, Writes, Updates, Deletes) * Network Traffic (Received & Sent)
This ZenPack provides support for monitoring Microsoft Windows. Monitoring is performed using the Windows Remote Management (WinRM) and Windows Remote Shell (WinRS) to collect Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) and perfmon data.

This ZenPack allows for monitoring of memcached. See the Usage section for details on what is monitored. This ZenPack previously existed as a commercial-only extension to Zenoss called ZenPacks.zenoss.MemcachedMonitor. Upon being released as open source its name was changed to better match today's standards. There already exists a very good community ZenPack for memcached by braudel. As far as I can see there is no compelling reason to use this version over that. Ultimately I'd like to see the ZenPacks come together to reduce confusion. At the time that this ZenPack was originally written, the community version didn't exist.
