Hi,

I'm so happy you managed to get it working for you.
I'm aware of the ansible version issue and the Openshift team is working to fix it.
Currently ansible 2.5.5 and 2.5.6 seem to be working ok.

Yes. You can add to the /etc/ovirt-engine-metrics/config.yml

collectd_interval: 20

(The default is 10 seconds)

And rerun the /usr/share/ovirt-engine-metrics/setup/ansible/configure_ovirt_machines_for_metrics.sh
This will update the collection interval on all your machines.

In addition, If there are metrics you do not wish to collect you can update the collectd config files in
/usr/share/ansible/roles/oVirt.metrics/roles/oVirt.ovirt-collectd/ovirt-host/templates/
and 
/usr/share/ansible/roles/oVirt.metrics/roles/oVirt.ovirt-collectd/ovirt-engine/templates/

and rerun the  /usr/share/ovirt-engine-metrics/setup/ansible/configure_ovirt_machines_for_metrics.sh

We would like to add aggregations in the future for long term storage.
Currently we set the curator to save 3 days of metrics data. since metrics consume lots of disk space.
Logs are kept for a month by default.
After that the curator deletes the old indexes.

You can update the curator but that will affect the disk size you will need.

This is the documentation for curator update and general info about curator:
https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/3.9/install_config/aggregate_logging.html#configuring-curator
https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/3.9/install_config/aggregate_logging.html#aggregate-logging-creating-the-curator-configuration

I hope this will help you.

Best regards,

I did set it up yesterday and I intent to use it. Setup worked ok on Centos 7.5. Only problem was with depency of ansible for centos-openshift-origin39-candidate, which I had to deactivate from repos. It did work though and I am getting reports now. Anyway is there a way to "relax" the amount of data collected, say make collection every 20 seconds instead of 10 seconds (I think that is the default.) Is there a way to get keep data for specific amount of time say 1 year and then discard the older data and vacuum the database ?

Thank you and redhat for all your efforts on providing such a fine product.
