discovery.openstack

discovery.openstack discovers OpenStack Nova instances and exposes them as targets.

Usage

Alloy Copy

discovery.openstack "<LABEL>" {
  role   = "<OPENSTACK_ROLE>"
  region = "<OPENSTACK_REGION>"
}

Arguments

You can use the following arguments with discovery.openstack:

role must be one of hypervisor or instance.

all_tenants is only relevant for the instance role and usually requires administrator permissions.

application_credential_id or application_credential_name fields are required if using an application credential to authenticate. Some providers allow you to create an application credential to authenticate rather than a password.

application_credential_secret field is required if using an application credential to authenticate.

availability must be one of public, admin, or internal.

project_id and project_name fields are optional for the Identity V2 API. Some providers allow you to specify a project_name instead of the project_id and some require both.

username is required if using Identity V2 API. In Identity V3, either userid or a combination of username and domain_id or domain_name are needed.

Blocks

You can use the following block with discovery.openstack:

tls_config

Exported fields

The following fields are exported and can be referenced by other components:

hypervisor role

The hypervisor role discovers one target per Nova hypervisor node. The target address defaults to the host_ip attribute of the hypervisor.

• __meta_openstack_hypervisor_host_ip: The hypervisor node’s IP address.
• __meta_openstack_hypervisor_hostname: The hypervisor node’s name.
• __meta_openstack_hypervisor_id: The hypervisor node’s ID.
• __meta_openstack_hypervisor_state: The hypervisor node’s state.
• __meta_openstack_hypervisor_status: The hypervisor node’s status.
• __meta_openstack_hypervisor_type: The hypervisor node’s type.

instance role

The instance role discovers one target per network interface of Nova instance. The target address defaults to the private IP address of the network interface.

• __meta_openstack_address_pool: The pool of the private IP.
• __meta_openstack_instance_flavor: The flavor of the OpenStack instance, or the flavor ID if the flavor name isn’t available.
• __meta_openstack_instance_id: The OpenStack instance ID.
• __meta_openstack_instance_image: The ID of the image the OpenStack instance is using.
• __meta_openstack_instance_name: The OpenStack instance name.
• __meta_openstack_instance_status: The status of the OpenStack instance.
• __meta_openstack_private_ip: The private IP of the OpenStack instance.
• __meta_openstack_project_id: The project (tenant) owning this instance.
• __meta_openstack_public_ip: The public IP of the OpenStack instance.
• __meta_openstack_tag_<key>: Each metadata item of the instance, with any unsupported characters converted to an underscore.
• __meta_openstack_user_id: The user account owning the tenant.

Component health

discovery.openstack is only reported as unhealthy when given an invalid configuration. In those cases, exported fields retain their last healthy values.

Debug information

discovery.openstack doesn’t expose any component-specific debug information.

Debug metrics

discovery.openstack doesn’t expose any component-specific debug metrics.

Example

Alloy Copy

discovery.openstack "example" {
  role   = "<OPENSTACK_ROLE>"
  region = "<OPENSTACK_REGION>"
}

prometheus.scrape "demo" {
  targets    = discovery.openstack.example.targets
  forward_to = [prometheus.remote_write.demo.receiver]
}

prometheus.remote_write "demo" {
  endpoint {
    url = "<PROMETHEUS_REMOTE_WRITE_URL>"

    basic_auth {
      username = "<USERNAME>"
      password = "<PASSWORD>"
    }
  }
}

Replace the following:

• <OPENSTACK_ROLE>: Your OpenStack role.
• <OPENSTACK_REGION>: Your OpenStack region.
• <PROMETHEUS_REMOTE_WRITE_URL>: The URL of the Prometheus remote_write-compatible server to send metrics to.
• <USERNAME>: The username to use for authentication to the remote_write API.
• <PASSWORD>: The password to use for authentication to the remote_write API.
