Step 6. Specify Rates for Cloud Connect Services
At the Cloud Connect step of the wizard, specify charge rates for storing backups in cloud repositories:
- In the Server backup field, specify a charge rate for storing backup data of one server computer on a cloud repository, per month.
- In the Workstation backup field, specify a charge rate for storing backup data for one workstation computer on a cloud repository, per month.
- In the VM backup field, specify a charge rate for storing one VM in backup on a cloud repository, per month.
- In the Replicated VM field, specify a charge rate for one VM replica registered on a cloud host, per month.
To specify charge rates for resources consumed by cloud VM replicas, see Configuring Cloud Replication Advanced Settings.
If you do not want to charge for a specific service, do not specify a charge rate for it (leave the field blank). If no rate is specified for a service, Veeam Service Provider Console will not take this service into account when calculating the total payment.
For description of chargeable services, see Services.
You can select the charging model for the cloud storage space and specify charges for cloud backups stored in the recycle bin:
- In the Cloud Connect backup resources, per month section, click Advanced settings.
- In the Cloud repository section, configure how you want to apply charges for cloud repository usage:
- Allocated space (quota) — select this option to charge for storage space allocated to a company and specify a charge rate for one GB or TB of cloud storage space.
- Consumed space — select this option to charge for consumed storage space on a cloud repository and specify a charge rate for one GB or TB of cloud storage space.
To provide a specific amount of storage space that can be consumed by backup files for free, in the Free of charge field specify for what amount of storage space you will not apply charges.
- Granular for each scale-out backup repository tier usage — select this option to charge separately for storage space consumed on different tiers of scale-out backup repositories and specify a charge rate for one GB or TB of cloud storage space on each tier.
For details on scale-out backup repository tiers, see section Scale-Out Backup Repository of the Veeam Backup & Replication User Guide.
- In the Deleted backups recycle bin section, specify a charge rate for one GB or TB of data consumed by backups deleted from a cloud repository.
For details on storing deleted backup files in the recycle bin, see section Insider Protection of the Veeam Cloud Connect Guide.
- In the Data transfer out section, specify a charge rate for one GB or TB of data downloaded from a cloud repository.
- Click Apply.
