OpenStack Notification System介绍

补充一个OpenStack Wiki中的架构图

    OpenStack给用户提供了一个通用的接口，Nova可以通过多种途径将instance变化的消息在用户或者管理员操作的时候发送出来或者记录到log中，并且从rabbitMQ中可以利用特定的topic来过滤想要的消息。

具体的配置如下：

1.修改 nova/openstack/common/notifier/api.py中的'notification_driver'的属性'nova.openstack.common.notifier'
    公有以下几种属性
    no_op_notifier 不做任何操作
    log_notifier 记录到日志中
    rabbit_notifier 发送到rabbitMQ的notification队列中
2.修改 nova/notification.py
    对于通知的内容，openstack提供了几种选择以适应不同用户的需求，其中有vm_state(instance运行状态)、vm_and_task_state（instance及task运行状态）、all（所有关于instance变化的信息）
    具体说明如下：
notify_state_opt = cfg.StrOpt('notify_on_state_change', default="vm_and_task_state",
help='If set, send compute.instance.update notifications on instance '
'state changes. Valid values are None for no notifications, '
'"vm_state" for notifications on VM state changes, or '
'"vm_and_task_state" for notifications on VM and task state '
'changes.')
notify_any_opt = cfg.BoolOpt('notify_on_any_change', default=False,
help='If set, send compute.instance.update notifications on instance '
'state changes. Valid values are False for no notifications, '
'True for notifications on any instance changes.')
3.以下是所有关于instance的notification信息
compute.instance.create.start/.end:
compute.instance.delete.start/.end:
compute.instance.rebuild.start/.end:
compute.instance.resize.prep.start/.end:
compute.instance.resize.confirm.start/.end:
compute.instance.resize.revert.start/.end:
compute.instance.exists:
compute.instance.update:
compute.instance.shutdown.start/.end
compute.instance.power_off.start/.end
compute.instance.power_on.start/.end
compute.instance.snapshot.start/.end
compute.instance.resize.start/.end
compute.instance.finish_resize.start/.end
    这里有一个compute.instance.delete.end json notification 信息，是从rabbitMQ的queue里面获得的。
