Replica Billing

This report helps you assess storage management costs for the backup infrastructure and tracks the consumption of storage used for replication purposes. This information may then be used for financial analysis.

The report estimates storage resources required to store replicas. The cost can be calculated based on the price of 1 GB or TB of consumed storage space or on the price of a single VM replica. If there is a datastore or volume that is more expensive than other ones, an administrator can also specify the price adjustment factor (or the multiplier) that characterizes the premium charged for access to the datastore/volume.

The report provides details on every replication job included into the report scope — the, number of replicated VMs and total amount of gigabytes transferred to the storage — and estimates the total cost of the VMs.

Backup Replication Billing Report

Use Case

This report allows managed storage providers (MSP) to automatically generate billing statements for customers and charge them for the used storage.

The report can help administrators to evaluate efficiency of the storage resources utilization.

Report Parameters

Scope: defines a backup infrastructure subset to analyze in the report.

Replication Job: defines a list of replication jobs to include in the report.

Interval/Start Date – End Date: defines a time interval for which the billing statement is required.

Price: defines a storage price for accommodating 1 GB/TB of replica files or a price for a single VM replica.

Datastores: defines a list of datastores and volumes that will be analyzed in the report.

Customer: defines customer name to be displayed in the report output.

Datastores...*: defines the price adjustment factor that characterizes the benefit (and the expense) of using the preferred datastore/volume storage capabilities. The resulting cost is calculated by multiplying the basic rate by the multiplier.

*This parameter is located in the right pane of the report details page under the Billing Parameters section. Select the target datastore and supply the desired price adjustment multiplier.
