Whiteboard
Currently, Nova-Docker Driver is Missing: Collection, Aggregation, Reporting of resource usage for containers missing (in Ceilometer).
How this affects clouds:
Monitoring / reporting of resource usage for containers not available through ceilometer. Due to this missing functionality, some of the higer-level scenarios such as Auto-scaling will not work for containers.
Proposed Approach and Design for implementing this:
1. Use cAdvisor (https:/
2. Develop and plug a ceilometer-agent that consumes cAdvisor's REST API to make this these metrics data available to Ceilometer (or later any other monitoring tool used such as Monasca). This will help retain the existing framework for telemetry or monitoring unchanged.
3. Automate (through chef or any other config tooling) Deployment of cAdvisor (ideally as a container itself as mentioned here: https:/
