Hi,
I have another solution in configuration of ceilometer.
If you open **ceilometer.conf** file you can found this code:
# number of seconds that samples are kept in the database for
# (<= 0 means forever) (integer value)
time_to_live=604800
By default the **time_to_live** is set to 0 that means forever!
I have set the value to 604800 ( 7 days x 24 hours x 60 minute x 60 second ) and now my database does not grow.
