View cloud usage statistics

The Telemetry module provides user-level usage data for OpenStack-based clouds, which can be used for customer billing, system monitoring, or alerts. Data can be collected by notifications sent by existing OpenStack components (for example, usage events emitted from Compute) or by polling the infrastructure (for example, libvirt).

	Note
	You can only view metering statistics on the dashboard (available only to adminstrators). The Telemetry service must be set up and administered through the ceilometer command-line interface (CLI). For basic administration information, refer to the "Measure Cloud Resources" chapter in the OpenStack End User Guide.
