2		    IPA -- Pluggable Accounting System
3
4Brief description
5=================
6
7IPA is the ``Pluggable Accounting System''.  The IPA distribution
8consists of three utilities for general purpose accounting and well
9defined APIs for external modules (modules are not part of the IPA
10distribution). These utilities allow to solve several accounting
11related tasks (not every possible task).
12
13These utilities are: ipa -- utility for accounting, ipactl -- control
14utility for ipa and ipastat -- statistics viewer.  All utilities are
15system independent and should work on any Unix-like operating system.
16
17There are three kinds of modules: accounting, database and statistics
18modules.  Accounting modules are used for gathering statistics from
19sources which are supported by particular modules (source of statistics
20can be anything).  Database modules are used for storing statistics
21to databases which are supported by particular modules (here database
22is an abstraction and it can be not real database).  Statistics modules
23are used for querying statistics for some time interval.
24
25Accounting and database modules are used by ipa(8), statistics
26modules are used by ipastat(8).  ipactl(8) does not use any module,
27but it allows to send control commands to ipa(8) and influence on
28statistics on-the-fly.
29
30To describe all features of IPA it is necessary to include content
31of all manual pages here.  So, if you want to understand the idea
32of IPA and how it works start reading from ipa.conf(5), then read
33ipa(8) and ipactl(8); then read ipastat(8) and ipastat.conf(5).
34If you want to know how IPA works with modules, read ipa_mod(3).
