Part IV. Monitoring OpenStack PackStack Deployments
There are two types of monitoring for OpenStack.
- Process Monitoring: A basic type of alert monitoring to check and see if a required process is running.
- Resource Alerting: Provides notifications when one or more resources are critically low. While the monitoring thresholds should be tuned to your specific OpenStack environment, monitoring resource usage is not specific to OpenStack and any generic type of alert will work fine.Some of the resources that you may want to monitor include:
- Disk Usage
- Server Load
- Memory Usage
- Network IO
- Available vCPUs
