Installation Using Devstack
===========================
To enable Gnocchi in devstack, add the following to local.conf:
::
enable_plugin gnocchi https://github.com/openstack/gnocchi master
To enable Grafana support in devstack, you can also enable `gnocchi-grafana`::
enable_service gnocchi-grafana
Then, you can start devstack:
::
./stack.sh
.. _installation:
Installation
============
To install Gnocchi using `pip`, just type::
pip install gnocchi
Depending on the drivers and features you want to use, you need to install
extra variants using, for example::
pip install gnocchi[postgresql,ceph,keystone]
This would install PostgreSQL support for the indexer, Ceph support for
storage, and Keystone support for authentication and authorization.
The list of variants available is:
* keystone provides Keystone authentication support
* mysql - provides MySQL indexer support
* postgresql provides PostgreSQL indexer support
* swift provides OpenStack Swift storage support
* ceph provides common part of Ceph storage support
* ceph_recommended_lib provides Ceph (>=0.80) storage support
* ceph_alternative_lib provides Ceph (>=10.1.0) storage support
* file provides file driver support
* doc documentation building support
* test unit and functional tests support
To install Gnocchi from source, run the standard Python installation
procedure::
pip install -e .
Again, depending on the drivers and features you want to use, you need to
install extra variants using, for example::
pip install -e .[postgresql,ceph,ceph_recommended_lib]
Ceph requirements
-----------------
Gnocchi leverages omap API of librados, but this is available in python binding
only since python-rados >= 9.1.0. To handle this, Gnocchi uses 'cradox' python
library which has exactly the same API but works with Ceph >= 0.80.0.
If Ceph and python-rados are >= 9.1.0, cradox python library becomes optional
but is still recommended.
Initialization
==============
Once you have configured Gnocchi properly (see :doc:`configuration`), you need
to initialize the indexer and storage:
::
gnocchi-upgrade
Upgrading
=========
In order to upgrade from a previous version of Gnocchi, you need to make sure
that your indexer and storage are properly upgraded. Run the following:
1. Stop the old version of Gnocchi API server and `gnocchi-statsd` daemon
2. Stop the old version of `gnocchi-metricd` daemon
3. Install the new version of Gnocchi
4. Run `gnocchi-upgrade`
This can take several hours depending on the size of your index and
storage.
5. Start the new Gnocchi API server, `gnocchi-metricd`
and `gnocchi-statsd` daemons
