Prerequisites

Before you install and configure the Telemetry service, you must configure a target to send metering data to. The recommended endpoint is Gnocchi. To enable Gnocchi, please see its install guide.

Install and configure components

  1. Install the packages:

    # yum install openstack-ceilometer-notification \
      openstack-ceilometer-central python-ceilometerclient

Finalize installation

  1. Start the Telemetry services and configure them to start when the system boots:

    # systemctl enable openstack-ceilometer-notification.service \
      openstack-ceilometer-central.service
    # systemctl start openstack-ceilometer-notification.service \
      openstack-ceilometer-central.service
