This sub tree stores the default settings for the stoney monitoring service for the customer Customer Ltd. with the uid 4000001.
The configuration below tells us the following:
- We have a monitoring window range (as
sstCronMinuteEnd
andsstCronHourEnd
are set). - The monitoring window is executed every 2nd Tuesday of every month.
- The monitoring windows can start a 09:30 and must end at 13:45 and takes 1 hour (60 minutes).
- A reminder will be sent to 'Support stepping stone AG <support@stepping-stone.ch>'.
The lookup of the default settings for the stoney monitoring service is as follows:
- Service roles:
ou=defaults,ou=stoney_office,ou=roles,ou=configuration,ou=monitoring,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
. - OpenStack project:
ou=defaults,uid=4100000,ou=projects,ou=configuration,ou=monitoring,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
. - Customer:
ou=defaults,uid=4000001,ou=customers,ou=configuration,ou=monitoring,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
. - Reseller:
ou=defaults,uid=4000000,ou=reseller,ou=configuration,ou=monitoring,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
.
For example: If no monitoring values or only a subset of monitoring values are set by the provisioning api (or provisioning script), an missing values are first looked up in the service roles sub tree. If there are still missing values, the next lookup occurs in the OpenStack project subtree. Once again, if there are still missing values, the next lookup occurs in the customer sub tree. If there are still missing values, the final lookup occurs in the reseller sub tree. If there are still missing values, the provisioning api (or provisioning script) must inform the calling instance (this would normally be a human).

|
sstInformPersonUID | sstRelationship | |
|
Stores the UID of the person to be informed if necessary. This UID can be used to look up the persons mail address, preferred language, name, surname or other information.
As this attribute is multi-valued, the lookups will continue, even if this attribute is set. |
sstResponsiblePersonUID | sstRelationship | |

For example: |
sstBelongsToCustomerUID | sstRelationship | |
|
Stores the customer UID the leaf belongs to. A unique value with 7 digits or more, must correspond with the uid entry. Each reseller is also a customer in the LDAP directory. Therefore, the value of the attribute sstBelongsToCustomerUID should always be set to the customer UID, that reflects the reseller for the OpenStack Domains.
For example: |
Legend:
- x: Mandatory in all cases.
Maintenance - Configuration - Customers - Notification settings
The sub tree stores the notification information for the monitoring service for the customer Customer Ltd. with the uid 4000001. This information is used as a fallback. The lookup is as follows:
- Unit:
uid=4000003,ou=units,ou=monitoring,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
. - Customer:
ou=notifications,uid=4000001,ou=customers,ou=configuration,ou=monitoring,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
. - Reseller:
ou=notifications,uid=4000000,ou=reseller,ou=configuration,ou=monitoring,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
. - Default Reseller:
ou=notifications,uid=4000000,ou=reseller,ou=configuration,ou=monitoring,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
.
The idea is, that even if somebody forgot to define something, no monitoring window will be lost or forgotten.

This sub tree stores the default settings for the stoney monitoring service settings for the stoney office service (Puppet) role called 'stoney_office'.
The configuration below tells us the following:
- We have a monitoring window range (as
sstCronMinuteEnd
andsstCronHourEnd
are set). - The monitoring window is executed every 2nd Wednesday of every month.
- The monitoring windows can start a 03:00 and must end at 05:00 and takes half an hour (30 minutes).
- A reminder will be sent to 'Support stepping stone AG <support@stepping-stone.ch>'.
The lookup of the default settings for the stoney monitoring service is as follows:
- Service roles:
ou=defaults,ou=stoney_office,ou=roles,ou=configuration,ou=monitoring,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
. - OpenStack project:
ou=defaults,uid=4100000,ou=roles,ou=configuration,ou=monitoring,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org

. - Reseller:
ou=defaults,uid=4000000,ou=reseller,ou=configuration,ou=monitoring,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
.
For example: If no monitoring values or only a subset of monitoring values are set by the provisioning api (or provisioning script), an missing values are first looked up in the service roles sub tree. If there are still missing values, the next lookup occurs in the OpenStack project subtree. Once again, if there are still missing values, the next lookup occurs in the customer sub tree. If there are still missing values, the final lookup occurs in the reseller sub tree. If there are still missing values, the provisioning api (or provisioning script) must inform the calling instance (this would normally be a human).

A monitoring window is either executed automatically:
or manually:
If the attribute |
sstCronRepeatType | sstMaintenanceDefaultsObjectClass | |
|
How often is a cron job to be repeated. Valid values are: daily , weekly , monthly , yearly .
|
sstCronInterval | sstMaintenanceDefaultsObjectClass | |
|
The interval of a cron job. This attribute is dependant on the attribute sstCronRepeatType. Valid values are: 1 - 12 . For example: 2 could be every two days, weeks, months or years (depending on the value of the attribute sstCronRepeatType .
|
sstCronOccurrenceInMonth | sstMaintenanceDefaultsObjectClass | |
|
The occurence of the day in a month a cron job is to be executed. Valid values are: 1 - 4 . For example: 3 would be the third occurence. If you use a value higher than 4, the calculation will fail in months, which only have 4 same days (for example February will never have 5 Mondays ...).
|
sstCronDayOfWeek | sstMaintenanceDefaultsObjectClass | |
|
Day of week (0 - 6 ), where Sunday is 0 . For example: 1 , which means Monday.
|
sstCronMinute | sstMaintenanceDefaultsObjectClass | |
|
The number of minutes past the hour that the monitoring window must start.
Valid values are: If the attribute |
sstCronMinuteEnd | sstMaintenanceDefaultsObjectClass | |
|
The number of minutes past the hour that the monitoring window must end (minus the duration defined with attribute sstCronDuration>/code>). Valid values are: <code>0 - 59 .
For example: If this attribute is set, it is interpreted as the end of a monitoring window minute range, while |
sstCronHour | sstMaintenanceDefaultsObjectClass | |
|
The hour the monitoring window must start.
Valid values are: If the attribute |
sstCronHourEnd | sstMaintenanceDefaultsObjectClass | |
|
The hour the monitoring window must end (minus the duration defined with attribute sstCronDuration>/code>).
- 23 . For example: 9 , which means 9 am, while 17 means 5 pm.
If this attribute is set, it is interpreted as the end of a monitoring window hour range, while |
sstCronDuration | sstMaintenanceDefaultsObjectClass | |
|
The duration of the monitoring window in minutes. Valid values are: 15 - 1440 (15 minutes to 24 hours). For example: 60 , which means 60 minutes (one hour).
|
sstNotificationWarning | sstNotificationObjectClass | |
|
This multi-valued attribute will be used to turn single notifications on or off. Currently, the only allowed value is reminder . The value (name) corresponds with the template dn.
|
sstInformPersonUID | sstRelationship | |
|
Stores the UID of the person to be informed if necessary. This UID can be used to look up the persons mail address, preferred language, name, surname or other information.
As this attribute is multi-valued, the lookups will continue, even if this attribute is set. |
sstResponsiblePersonUID | sstRelationship | |
|
Stores the UID of the person who is responsible for the system or service. This UID can be used to look up the persons mail address, preferred language, name, surname or other information. |
sstResponsibleDeputyPersonUID | sstRelationship | |
|
Stores the UID of the deputy of the person who is responsible for the system or service. This UID can be used to look up the persons mail address, preferred language, name, surname or other information. |
sstBelongsToResellerUID | sstRelationship | |
|
Stores the reseller UID the leaf belongs to. A unique integer value with 7 digits or more. In the case of OpenStack Domains (resellers), the value of sstBelongsToResellerUID corresponds with the value of uid .
For example: For the service (Puppet) roles this attribute must not be set, as the content of this value must be taken from either the OpenStack project, the customer or the reseller. |
sstBelongsToCustomerUID | sstRelationship | |
|
Stores the customer UID the leaf belongs to. A unique value with 7 digits or more, must correspond with the uid entry. Each reseller is also a customer in the LDAP directory. Therefore, the value of the attribute sstBelongsToCustomerUID should always be set to the customer UID, that reflects the reseller for the OpenStack Domains.
For example: For the service (Puppet) roles this attribute must not be set, as the content of this value must be taken from either the OpenStack project, the customer or the reseller. |

Maintenance - Units
The sub tree for the units of the monitoring service:
dn: ou=units,ou=monitoring,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org objectclass: top objectclass: organizationalUnit ou: units description: The sub tree for the units of the monitoring service.
Maintenance - Units example
Each monitoring unit has its own leaf. A monthly monitoring window is the norm.
Maintenance window every month on the second Tuesday of the month between 09:30 and 10:30, starting on Tuesday, the 14th of April 2015.
The sstBelongsToServiceUID lookup is as follows:
- OpenStack unit (server):
ou=units,ou=openstack,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
. - Virtual Machine:
ou=virtual machines,ou=virtualization,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
. - vServer:
ou=vservers,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
. - Dedicated Server:
ou=dedicated servers,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
(not implemented yet). - External Server:
ou=external servers,ou=services,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org
(not implemented yet).
The idea is, that we presume, that most of the monitoring units belong to OpenStack units (servers) running on our OpenStack based stoney cloud installation.
In the example below, the service UID sstBelongsToServiceUID: 1234567
points to virtual machine with the b543f88f-dffe-426f-86d3-c7ff85c16d2a
and the uid: 1234567
.
