License Categories vSphere license keys deployed by service providers may have different billing characteristics and the

vCloud Usage Meter provides the ability to indicate which vSphere license keys are billable by defining

the licensing category. Fields defined in the license categories include the name or type of vSphere

license, license code, vCenter Servers where license key is deployed, and default license categories

defined below.

VSPP – License key obtained through VSPP and all virtual machines running on hosts with these

keys are considered to be billable.

Perpetual – License keys obtained outside of the VSPP program and virtual machines running on

hosts with these keys are not considered billable.

Demo – License keys that are not billable that can be used for environments such as demo

systems and View deployments.

vSphere licenses keys will be updated after a successful vCenter query. Once the keys are available, the

Category can be modified to represent the correct license category. By default, the Category is set to

VSPP. If license key is no longer present in a vCenter Server, the license is removed from the licenses to

manage in the License Categories. Changes made to the license categories are saved after modification.

Automatic Reporting

You can set up Usage Meter to automatically generate reports and email them to an Aggregator, or

elsewhere. Service providers who report to multiple aggregators can set up an automatic report for

each one, using a different license set for each (see Licenses).

To select an automatic report, use the “Name” select control. The form on the right presents the report

details. To create or change a report, enter details in the form and push Save. Use the Delete button to

3. A new dialog window is presented in order to save the customers and customer’s rules as a tab separated text file.

Customer Rules

Customer rules enable the Service Provider to associate vCenter Server objects with a customer’s cloud

infrastructure to enable monthly customer usage reporting as defined in the VSPP Program Guide and

VSPP Product Guide. The vCloud Usage Meter provides the Service Provider with granular control of

vCenter Server inventory where they are able link objects in the vCenter Server inventory from as high

as the vCenter Server down to the individual unique ID for a virtual machine or IP address.

Refer to the Reports section and Customer Summary Report to review customer’s monthly usage after

creating rules.

Create Rules through User Interface There are several options for assigning the customer rules to the customer which include creating the

relationship through the user interface or by importing a tab separated file with customer and customer

rules defined. When working with the user interface, use the following procedure to link a rule to a

customer.
