Measuring other values from logs #57

Open lee212 opened 11 years ago

For Eucalyptus, we are currently parsing only print_ccInstance() function in the logs. However, we are strongly encouraged to parse other function in the logs to measure more values that could be highly valuable for measuring cloud utilization. For example, cloud node usage, failure ratio, etc.

This may be opened to users if we provide a user-configurable log parser and functions. They will see logs and create functions to measure values.

This idea and task will be devised in detail.
