Exporting OpenNebula accounting data.

Build Status Dependency Status Gem Version Code Climate

##Requirements

  • Ruby >= 2.0
  • Rubygems
  • Redis server (doesn't have to be present on the same machine)
  • OpenNebula >= 4.4 (doesn't have to be present on the same machine)

##Installation ###From distribution specific packages Distribution specific packages can be created with omnibus packaging for OneacctExport. When installing via packages you don't have to install neither ruby nor rubygems. Packages contain embedded ruby and all the necessary gems and libraries witch will not effect your system ruby, gems and libraries.

Currently supported distributions:

  • Ubuntu 10.04
  • Ubuntu 12.04
  • Ubuntu 14.04
  • Debian 6.0.10
  • Debian 7.6
  • CentOS 5.10
  • CentOS 6.5

###From RubyGems.org To install the most recent stable version

gem install oneacct-export

###From source (dev) Installation from source should never be your first choice! Especially, if you are not familiar with RVM, Bundler, Rake and other dev tools for Ruby!

However, if you wish to contribute to our project, this is the right way to start.

To build and install the bleeding edge version from master

git clone git://github.com/EGI-FCTF/oneacct_export.git
cd oneacct_export
gem install bundler
bundle install
bundle exec rake spec
rake install

##Configuration ###Create a new user account Create or use an existing apel user account which will be used to run the export process. This account must be the same as the user account used by the APEL SSM client.

###Create a configuration file for OneacctExport Configuration file can be read by OneacctExport from these three locations:

  • ~/.oneacct-export/conf.yml
  • /etc/oneacct-export/conf.yml
  • PATH_TO_GEM_DIR/config/conf.yml

The example configuration file can be found at the last location PATH_TO_GEM_DIR/config/conf.yml. When editing a configuration file you have to follow the division into three environments: production, development and test. All the configuration options are described in the example configuration file.

###Create a configuration file for Sidekiq Sidekiq configuration file can be placed anywhere you want since you will provide path to the configuration later during the Sidekiq start. How the Sidekiq configuration should look like and what options you can use can be found on its wiki page. An example is provided in PATH_TO_GEM_DIR/config/sidekiq.yml.

The important thing is to set the same queue name in both OneacctExport and Sidekiq configuration files. OneacctExport is currently supporting adding jobs to only one queue.

###Create required directories

mkdir -p /var/run/oneacct-export
chown apel:apel /var/run/oneacct-export

mkdir -p /var/log/oneacct-export
chown apel:apel /var/log/oneacct-export

###Configure RPC connection RPC connection for OpenNebula can be configured in two ways:

  • Via OneacctExport configuration file, option xml_rpc and its suboptions
  • Via OpenNebula configuration mechanism:

System environment variable ONE_AUTH contains path to the file containing string in format username:password to authenticate against OpenNebula. If the variable is empty, default file location is ~/.one/one_auth.

System environment variable ONE_XMLRPC contains URL of OpenNebula RPC gate. If empty, the same information can be stored in ~/.one/one_endpoint.

###Configure vmcatcher IMAGE attribute inheritance in OpenNebula In oned.conf:

INHERIT_IMAGE_ATTR = "VMCATCHER_EVENT_AD_MPURI"
INHERIT_IMAGE_ATTR = "VMCATCHER_EVENT_DC_IDENTIFIER"
INHERIT_IMAGE_ATTR = "VMCATCHER_EVENT_IL_DC_IDENTIFIER"
INHERIT_IMAGE_ATTR = "VMCATCHER_EVENT_SL_CHECKSUM_SHA512"
INHERIT_IMAGE_ATTR = "VMCATCHER_EVENT_HV_VERSION"

###Configure benchmark host attributes in OpenNebula In order to recognize and fill BenchmarkType and Benchmark APEL v0.4 fields, two attributes have to be set for every host in OpenNebula:

  • BENCHMARK_TYPE - represents benchmark's type. For example: HEP-SPEC06
  • BENCHMARK_VALUES - represents a map of virtual machine instance types and their measured values of said benchmark formatted as JSON. For example:
{
  "http://schemas.fedcloud.egi.eu/occi/infrastructure/resource_tpl#atlas":312.39,
  "http://schemas.fedcloud.egi.eu/occi/infrastructure/resource_tpl#extra_large":146.64,
  "http://schemas.fedcloud.egi.eu/occi/infrastructure/resource_tpl#goliath":255.80,
  "http://fedcloud.egi.eu/occi/compute/flavour/1.0#large":84.46
}

Virtual machine instance types are in form of OCCI scheme#term of resource_tpl mixins. You can list your mixins via OCCI cli utility with command

occi --endpoint $ENDPOINT -a list -r resource_tpl

To check whether the value is correctly formatted use one of the JSON format validators and formatters, for example https://jsonformatter.curiousconcept.com/.

Both attributes can be set both for clusters and hosts in OpenNebula with hosts' attributes taking precedence. If attributes are set only for cluster, all hosts within the cluster will be assigned these values.

###Set Rails environment variable according to your environment You have to set system environment variable RAILS_ENV to one of the values production, development or test. OneacctExport is not a Rails application but we chose the Rails variable for easier possible integration in the future.

##Usage

Both OpenNebula and Redis server must be running prior the next steps.

###Start sidekiq First you have to start Sidekiq so it can run the jobs from the queue. Since OneacctExport is not a Rails application Sidekiq has to be started with OneacctExport's worker class as an argument. For example:

sidekiq -r $PATH_TO_GEM_DIR/lib/one_worker.rb -C $PATH_TO_GEM_DIR/config/sidekiq.yml

###Start OneacctExport

OneacctExport is run with executable oneacct-export. For a list of all available options run oneacct-export -h:

$ oneacct-export -h

Usage oneacct-export [options]

        --records-from TIME          Retrieves only records newer than TIME
        --records-to TIME            Retrieves only records older than TIME
        --records-for PERIOD         Retrieves only records within the time PERIOD
        --include-groups [GROUP1,GROUP2,...]
                                     Retrieves only records of virtual machines which belong to the specified groups
        --exclude-groups [GROUP1,GROUP2,...]
                                     Retrieves only records of virtual machines which don't belong to the specified groups
        --group-file FILE            If --include-groups or --exclude-groups specified, loads groups from file FILE
    -b, --[no-]blocking              Run in a blocking mode - wait until all submitted jobs are processed
    -t, --timeout N                  Timeout for blocking mode in seconds. Default is 1 hour.
    -c, --[no-]compatibility-mode    Run in compatibility mode - supports OpenNebula 4.4.x
    -h, --help                       Shows this message
    -v, --version                    Shows version

###Package specific scripts When installed from packages build via omnibus packaging for OneacctExport, both Sidekiq and OneacctExport are automatically registered as cron jobs to run periodically. Cron job managing OneacctExport uses a bash script which is simplifying OneacctExport interface for most common use cases. After the installation, script can be found in /usr/bin/oneacct-export-cron. Script can accept command line options --week|-w (default), --two-weeks, --month|-m, --two-months, --six-months, --year|-y and --all|-a which sets age of retrieved records accordingly. There is also a set of files which when present in /opt/oneacct-export/ directory serves as a configuration shortcut:

  • compat.one - turns on compatibility mode (same as OneacctExport option --compatibility-mode)
  • groups.include - contains list of groups to include (same as combination of OneacctExport options --include-groups and --group-file)
  • groups.exclude - contains list of groups to exclude (same as combination of OneacctExport options --exclude-groups and --group-file)
