This port needs to be opened for incomming traffic on control node. - -Collectd Monitor ----------------- - -Collectd monitor type uses collectd daemon running ovs_events plugin. Collectd runs on -compute to send instant notification to the control node. The notification time is -calculated by using the difference of time at which compute node sends notification to -control node and the time at which consumer is notified. The time on control and compute -node has to be synchronized for this reason. For further details on setting up collectd -on the compute node, use the following link: -:doc:`<barometer:release/userguide/feature.userguide>` - - -Collectd monitors an interface managed by OVS. If the interface is not be assigned -an IP, the user has to provide the name of interface to be monitored. The command to -launch the doctor test in that case is: -MONITOR_TYPE=collectd INSPECTOR_TYPE=sample INTERFACE_NAME=example_iface ./run.sh - -If the interface name or IP is not provided, the collectd monitor type will monitor the -default management interface. This may result in the failure of doctor run.sh test case. -The test case sets the monitored interface down and if the inspector (sample or congress) -is running on the same subnet, collectd monitor will not be able to communicate with it. |
