I am trying to install Ceilometer for collecting Swift usage data and having a bunch of problems. I am following the link below to install and run Ceilometer for Swift:
http://docs.openstack.org/developer/ceilometer/install/manual.html#installing-manually
I am stuck at step 9 i.e. when I try to launch ceilometer-collector, I get the following error:
**# ceilometer-collector
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/ceilometer-collector", line 6, in <module>
from ceilometer.collector.service import collector
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ceilometer/collector/service.py", line 26, in <module>
from ceilometer.service import prepare_service

File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ceilometer/openstack/common/gettextutils.py", line 34, in <module>
from babel import localedata
ImportError: No module named babel**
I have following some questions:
1) What does the option set in step 8.1 in the link above? I mean in /etc/ceilometer/ceilometer.conf, there're no Swift options for *_control_exchange
2) Has anyone successfully installed Ceilometer for Swift? Any step-by-step guide would be immensely helpful as the link above is generic for manual installation.
My configuration is the following:
Management server running the collector, data store, central agent, 2 proxy servers and 3 storage nodes. Everything is running on OpenStack Grizzly on 64-bit Ubuntu 12.04.
here is a post with trouble shooting for Ceilometer Havana on SLES 11 SP3, http://zqfan.github.io/openstack/2014/03/18/enable-swift-meter-on-suse/
the message "ImportError: No module named babel" means you have not installed the depended python lib.
Swift sample is sent by a ceilometer middleware, which is happen in API request, so I think there is no such swift_control_exchage option
