If you intend to work with these management packs, for the most efficient use of resources, configure theadapters of the management pack in the following order.

1 Management Pack for vCenter

2 Endpoint Operations agents for the Endpoints

3 Management Pack for NSX for vSphere

VMware, Inc. 7

4 Management Pack for OpenStack

Note Each management pack populates a particular area of the user interface with specific data. If youchoose not to integrate the Management Pack for OpenStack with these management packs, some areasof the OpenStack user interface will not be populated with data, as shown in the following table.

Note If OpenStack is using vCenter for the compute backend, an instance of the vCenter adapter mustbe configured to monitor the vCenter environment that is registered with OpenStack. If this is not done,hosts and virtual machines will show up as "Non-ESX Hosts" and "Non-ESX Virtual Machines".

Note Capacity is only calculated for the storage infrastructure when using vCenter data stores.

Configuring OpenStack with Log InsightThe Management Pack for OpenStack enables you to open selected objects in Log Insight, and viewlogging information for the object. OpenStack does not support automatic configuration of logginginformation, and if you want to forward logging information to Log Insight, you must configure theOpenStack host manually.

Prerequisites

Ensure that Log Insight is integrated with vRealize Operations Manager. See the Log Insightdocumentation at https://www.vmware.com/support/pubs/log-insight-pubs.html.


VMware, Inc. 23

http://www.vmware.com/support/pubs/log-insight-pubs.html

Procedure

1 On each host, locate the config file for OpenStack components.

For example, /etc/nova/nova.conf, /etc/neutron/neutron.conf.

2 In the config file, set the use_syslog parameter to true.

3 Specify the forwarding host by running the following command in the /etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf file.

# echo "*.* @@<loginsight-hostname>:514" >>

/etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf

# tail -1 /etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf

*.* @@<loginsight-hostname>:514

# service rsyslog restart

The name of your config file may be different, but the forwarding information you enter is the same.

4 Restart OpenStack services on the host to apply the changes.

OpenStack begins to forward logging information. Check Log Insight to see if the logs are beingforwarded.
