     auth_url = http://controller:35357
     memcached_servers = controller:11211
     auth_type = password
     project_domain_name = default
     user_domain_name = default
     project_name = service
     username = aodh
     password = AODH_PASS

     Replace AODH_PASS with the password you chose for the aodh user in the Identity service.

     user_domain_name = default
     project_name = service
     username = aodh
