Enabling Alarms for plugin metrics/meters
=========================================
This guide provides a description of what aodh features are available when the
collectd-gnocchi plugin is enabled. It provides a list of the alarms that can be
created and how to create them.
Gnocchi Based Alarms
--------------------
There are three types of gnocchi based alarms that can be created using aodh:
- gnocchi_resources_threshold
- gnocchi_aggregation_by_metrics_threshold
- gnocchi_aggregation_by_resources_threshold
.. note::
Currently, the metrics created by the collectd-gnocchi-plugin don't
support the creation of gnocchi_resources_threshold alarms or
gnocchi_aggregation_by_resources_threshold alarms.
To create a simple gnocchi_aggregation_by_metrics_threshold alarm:
- Type the following;
::
aodh alarm create
- In the same command specify the name, type, metrics, threshold and
aggregation method of your desired alarm. This alarm can be defined for one
or a list of metrics.
::
--name <ALARM_NAME>
-t gnocchi_aggregation_by_metrics_threshold
--threshold <THRESHOLD>
--metrics <LIST_OF_METRICS>
--aggregation-method <AGGREGATION_METHOD>
Event Alarms
------------
Event alarms can be created for any gnocchi metric. They would be triggered based
on the status of the event defined for the alarm.
- To create event alarms enter the following command;
::
aodh alarm create
--name <ALARM_NAME>
-t event
--event-type <EVENT_TYPE>
Composite Alarms
----------------
Like event alarms, composite alarms can be created for the gnocchi plugin.
A composite alarm is created by combining more than one type of alarm.
Hence you can combine alarms based on Gnocchi metrics with alarms from other
sources.
- Composite alarms are generated by the following command;
::
aodh alarm create
--name <ALARM_NAME>
-t composite
--composite-rule <COMPOSITE_RULE>
