I haven't tried installing Hawkular myself, but from what you're saying (seeing the empty "metrics-deployer.yml" file), I guess that might be a part of the problem.

The instructions at guifreelife.com include the following step:

$ curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openshift/openshift-ansible/master/roles/openshift_examples/files/examples/v1.2/infrastructure-templates/enterprise/metrics-deployer.yaml

However, the file doesn't exist at that location, hence the empty file you're getting.

The file is now available from:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openshift/openshift-ansible/master/roles/openshift_hosted_templates/files/v1.5/enterprise/metrics-deployer.yaml

Perhaps if you try substituting the URL in that step, you might get better results.

Regards,
Robert

P.S. I'm CC'ing the container-tools mailing list for more people to see this.
