Setting up monitoring on OpenShift

1) On mist.io dashboard, add your OpenShift cardridge as 'Other server' in order to receive a uuid/password pair. Check out  http://docs.mist.io/article/28-adding-other-servers for more info. You can simple provide a title, or can also provide an ip address. 

Enable monitoring on this, so that you get a command with uuid/password. Copy this

2) Install  https://github.com/celer/openshift-collectd , you will need to make some changes on  metadata/manifest.yml file, set options similar as here  https://github.com/tdkonsta/mistCollectd/blob/master/metadata/manifest.yml

3) on the conf directory, put this file  https://github.com/tdkonsta/mistCollectd/blob/master/conf/collectd.conf.erb and also a file uuid with the uuid (that would be 18db26b16c398c234fd4c4f27f16a25d for this example). You will need to change the collectd.conf.erb file to reflect the uuid and password there as well. 

Thanks to Konstantinos Tsilfidis for helping us write and test this.
