experimenting with ceilometer via devstack

 

John Tran 's patch just landed in devstack to enable ceilometer support.
Thanks, John!

To turn on ceilometer, add this line to your localrc before running
devstack:

    enable_service ceilometer-acompute,ceilometer-acentral,
ceilometer-collector

The default configuration results in a MongoDB database called "ceilometer"
containing all of the metering data. You can access it directly using the
mongo shell via the command "mongo ceilometer".

The ceilometer API server does not have a wrapper script, but you can start
the dev server by running

    python -m ceilometer.api

The server will listen for requests on port 9000 by default.
