 This command will start the autoscaling application and start REST server on 9991 port.
 
 ## To verify the autoscaling application:
-1) Login to cloudlab compute nodes
-2) On each compute node, open /etc/ceilometer/pipeline.yaml file
-3) Change the polling interval for "cpu_source" meters from 600 to 60 as shown below
