5 Barometer Configuration Guide
6 =============================
7 This document provides guidelines on how to install and configure Barometer with Apex and Compass4nfv.
8 The deployment script installs and enables a series of collectd plugins on the compute node(s),
9 which collect and dispatch specific metrics and events from the platform.
11 Pre-configuration activities - Apex
12 -----------------------------------
13 Deploying the Barometer components in Apex is done through the deploy-opnfv command by selecting
14 a scenario-file which contains the ``barometer: true`` option. These files are located on the
15 Jump Host in the ``/etc/opnfv-apex/ folder``. Two scenarios are pre-defined to include Barometer,
16 and they are: ``os-nosdn-bar-ha.yaml`` and ``os-nosdn-bar-noha.yaml``.
21 $ opnfv-deploy -d os-nosdn-bar-ha.yaml -n network_settings.yaml -i inventory.yaml –- debug
23 Pre-configuration activities - Compass4nfv
24 ------------------------------------------
25 Deploying the Barometer components in Compass4nfv is done by running the deploy.sh script after
26 exporting a scenario-file which contains the ``barometer: true`` option. Two scenarios are pre-defined
27 to include Barometer, and they are: ``os-nosdn-bar-ha.yaml`` and ``os-nosdn-bar-noha.yaml``. For more
28 information, please refer to these useful links:

33 The quickest way to deploy using Compass4nfv is given below.
37 $ export SCENARIO=os-nosdn-bar-ha.yml
38 $ curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/opnfv/compass4nfv/master/quickstart.sh | bash
40 Hardware configuration
41 ----------------------
42 There's no specific Hardware configuration required. However, the ``intel_rdt`` plugin works
43 only on platforms with Intel CPUs.
47 All Barometer plugins are automatically deployed on all compute nodes. There is no option to
48 selectively install only a subset of plugins. Any custom disabling or configuration must be done
49 directly on the compute node(s) after the deployment is completed.
53 The Barometer components are built-in in the ISO image, and respectively the RPM/Debian packages.
54 There is no simple way to update only the Barometer plugins in an existing deployment.
