OpenStack Exporter
The openstack-exporter charm is a machine charm for openstack-exporter.
OpenStack Exporter is a Prometheus exporter for OpenStack, which uses the OpenStack REST APIs to produce metrics about the OpenStack cloud. This charm deploys OpenStack Exporter, configures it to connect to an OpenStack deployment using Keystone, and provides integration with Canonical Observability Stack (COS) (via grafana-agent). It also includes some Grafana dashboards that use provided metrics.
This can be useful to operators and admins looking for more insights into a Charmed OpenStack cloud.
Getting started
Please check out the tutorial.
Security considerations
The charm requests an admin user from Keystone for use with openstack-exporter. The exporter appears to only support an admin user, as non-admin users are not able to list all the endpoints required for the metrics.
Known issues
- This requires a temporary custom snap build of the software, which isn’t ideal. Eventually the aim is to have the updated snap available on the Snap store, so the charm can install it automatically.
