Thanks gord. I will enable "store_events" and see if neutron related meters/state events are appearing under "ceilometer events-list"

Thanks

to followup, in Ceilometer, we capture data in two different models: 
Meters and Events[1]. Meters are designed for numeric, measurement data such as: cpu time, cpu_util, incoming.bytes, etc... Events are a more generic model which represent the state of a resource. historically, we never had Events so we captured non-measurement data (see Neutron
'meters') as Meters. going forward, consumers should enable store_events (if not already) to capture non-measurement data as Events. Events offer better granularity and are more query-able.
