================================================
Installing and Running the Development Version
================================================
Ceilometer has four daemons. The :term:`compute agent` runs on the
Nova compute node(s) while the :term:`central agent` and
:term:`collector` run on the cloud's management node(s). In a
development environment created by devstack_, these two are typically
the same server. They do not have to be, though, so some of the
instructions below are duplicated. Skip the steps you have already
done.

Configuring Devstack
====================
.. index::
double: installing; devstack
1. Create a ``localrc`` file as input to devstack.
2. Ceilometer makes extensive use of the messaging bus, but has not
yet been tested with ZeroMQ. We recommend using Rabbit or qpid for
now.
3. Nova does not generate the periodic notifications for all known
instances by default. To enable these auditing events, set
``instance_usage_audit`` to true in the nova configuration file.
4. Cinder does not generate notifications by default. To enable
these auditing events, set the following in the cinder configuration file::
notification_driver=cinder.openstack.common.notifier.rpc_notifier
5. The ceilometer services are not enabled by default, so they must be
enabled in ``localrc`` before running ``stack.sh``.
This example ``localrc`` file shows all of the settings required for
ceilometer::
# Enable the ceilometer metering services
enable_service ceilometer-acompute,ceilometer-acentral,ceilometer-collector
# Enable the ceilometer alarming services
enable_service ceilometer-alarm-evaluator,ceilometer-alarm-notifier
# Enable the ceilometer api services
enable_service ceilometer-api
