<title>Install the Metering service</title>
<procedure>
<para>The Metering service is an API service that provides a
collector and a range of disparate agents. Before you can
install these agents on nodes such as the compute node, you must
use this procedure to install the core components on the
controller node.</para>

<para>The Metering service uses a database to store information.
