4. Chargeback

The chargeback feature allows you to calculate monetary virtual machine charges based on owner or company tag. To use this feature you must be collecting capacity and utilization data.

For information on server control setting and capacity & utilization collection settings, see General Configuration.

4.1. Chargeback Rates

ManageIQ provides a default set of rates for calculating chargeback costs, but you can create your own set of computing and storage costs by navigating to Cloud Intelligence  Chargeback and clicking the Rates accordion.

You can configure chargeback rates for various resources by selecting either Compute or Storage in the Rates accordion. Compute sets chargeback rates for CPU, disk I/O, fixed compute cost, memory, and network I/O items, while Storage sets chargeback rates for fixed storage cost and disk storage.

Chargeback costs are computed using a set formula based on hourly cost per unit and hourly usage.

Chargeback can be calculated in the following currencies:

  • Australian dollar (AUD)

  • Brazilian real (BRL)

  • Swiss franc (CHF)

  • Chinese yuan renminbi (CNY)

  • Euro (EUR)

  • Pound sterling (GBP)

  • Indian rupee (INR)

  • Japanese yen (JPY)

  • South Korean won (KRW)

  • Mexican peso (MXN)

  • Norwegian krone (NOK)

  • Russian ruble (RUB)

  • Swedish krona (SEK)

  • Turkish lira (TRY)

  • United States dollar (USD)

  • South African rand (ZAR)

Chargeback rates can be assigned at a single rate or by tiers, where rates are assigned in ranges depending on level of usage.

Additionally, chargeback can be calculated at one fixed rate, or by a combination of fixed and variable rates per tier. Fixed rates are charged once per unit of time, and the variable rate is calculated by the level of usage multiplied by the number of resources used in a unit of time.

4.1.1. Memory Used Cost

Calculating the Memory Used Cost in dollars ($) for a day can be expressed in the following ways:

  • Memory allocation per hour (in MB) * Hourly Allocation cost per megabyte * Number of Memory Allocation metrics available for the day

  • Sum of Memory allocation for the day (in MB) * Hourly Allocation cost per megabyte

  • Sum of Memory allocation for the day (in MB) * Daily Allocation cost per megabyte / 24

Memory costs can be measured in B, KB, MB, GB, or TB.

Example 1. Memory Used Cost
In a scenario where 9.29 GB of memory is used in a day with the chargeback rate set at one dollar ($1) per megabyte per day, the Memory Used Cost would be $396.42.
  • 9.29 GB = 9514.08 MB

  • 9514.08 MB * $1 (per MB per day) = $9514.08

  • $9514.08 / 24 = $396.42 Memory Used Cost

4.1.2. CPU Total Cost

The CPU Total Cost is defined as the number of virtual CPUs over the selected interval (hour, day, week, month). CPU costs can be measured in units of Hz, KHz, MHz, GHz, or THz, as specified when creating a chargeback rate.

Example 2. CPU Total Cost

In a scenario where 16 CPUs are used in a day with the chargeback rate set at one dollar per CPU per day, the CPU Total Cost would be $16.

  • 16 CPUs * $1 (per CPU per day) = $16 CPU Total Cost

4.1.3. CPU Used Cost

The CPU Used Cost is defined as the average CPU used in MHz over the selected rate interval (hour, day, week, month). CPU Used Cost is not supported for containers providers.

Example 3. CPU Used Cost

In a scenario where 2.5 GHz is used in a day with the chargeback rate set at $0.01 per MHz per day, the CPU Used Cost would be $25.

  • 2.5 GHz = 2500 MHz

  • 2500 MHz * $0.01 (per MHz per day) = $25 CPU Used Cost

4.1.4. Storage Allocated Cost

The Storage Allocated Cost is defined as the Allocated Disk Storage in bytes over the selected rate interval (hour, day, week, month). Storage costs can be measured in B, KB, MB, GB, or TB.

Example 4. Storage Allocated Cost

In a scenario where 500 GB are used in a day with the chargeback rate set at $0.10 per GB per day, the Storage Allocated Cost would be $50.

  • 536,870,912,000 bytes = 500 GB

  • 500 GB * $0.10 (per GB per day) = $50 Storage Allocated Cost

4.1.5. Storage Total Cost

The Storage Total Cost is defined as the Used Disk Storage in bytes over the selected rate interval (hour, day, week, month).

Example 5. Storage Total Cost

In a scenario where 250 GB are used in a day with the chargeback rate set at $0.10 per GB per day, the Storage Total Cost would be $25.

  • 268,435,456,000 bytes = 250 GB

  • 250 GB * $0.10 (per GB per day) = $25 Storage Total Cost

4.1.6. Storage Used Cost

The Storage Used Cost is defined as the Used Disk Storage in bytes over the selected rate interval (hour, day, week, month).

Example 6. Storage Used Cost

In a scenario where 250 GB are used in a day with the chargeback rate set at $0.10 per GB per day, the Storage Used Cost would be $25.

  • 268,435,456,000 bytes = 250 GB

  • 250 GB * $0.10 (per GB per day) = $25 Storage Used Cost

The following chargeback rates are not supported for containers providers:

  • Allocated CPU count

  • Used CPU

  • Used disk I/O

  • Allocated memory

4.2. Creating Chargeback Rates

ManageIQ allows you to create your own set of computing and storage costs to use for billing.

Chargeback rates can be configured at a single rate or in tiers, where one rate is assigned to one usage range, and another rate is assigned to a different usage range. You can also assign fixed and variable rates per tier if desired.

There are three methods to create a chargeback rate: editing or copying an existing rate, or creating a new rate.

4.2.1. Editing a Chargeback Rate

  1. Navigate to Cloud Intel  Chargeback.

  2. Click the Rates accordion and select an existing rate from under Compute or Storage.

  3. Click 1847 (Configuration) and 1851 (Edit this Chargeback Rate).

4.2.3. Adding a Chargeback Rate

The following example shows a scenario to create a new chargeback rate for allocated CPU usage in Euro per week measured by the following tiers, calculating both fixed and variable costs:

Example: Creating a tiered chargeback rate
  • Tier 1: 0-2 CPU = 1 Euro fixed + 0.5 Euro variable

  • Tier 2: 2-4 CPU = 0.8 Euro fixed + 0.4 Euro variable

  • Tier 3: 4 CPU and above = 0.6 Euro fixed + 0.2 Euro variable

To configure this rate:

  1. Navigate to Cloud Intel  Chargeback.

  2. Click the Rates accordion and select Compute to create a CPU chargeback rate.

    1. Click 1847 (Configuration) and 1862 (Add a new Chargeback Rate).

  3. Type in a Description for the chargeback rate.

  4. Select Euro for currency.

  5. In Rate Details, select the time, and fill in the range and rates for each tier. Alternatively, a single chargeback rate can be configured by using only one tier. For this example, in Allocated CPU Count, configure:

    1. For tier 1, set:

      1. In Per Time, select Hourly.

      2. In Range, specify the CPU range: Start remains as 0.0 and Finish is 2.

      3. In Rate, specify 1 for the Fixed rate, and 0.5 for the Variable rate.

      4. Click Add under Actions to create a new, blank Allocated CPU Count line for tier 2.

    2. For tier 2, set:

      1. In the new line in Range, specify the CPU range: Start is 2 and Finish is 4.

      2. In Rate, specify 0.8 for the Fixed rate, and 0.4 for the Variable rate.

      3. Click Add under Actions to create another new, blank Allocated CPU Count line for tier 3.

    3. For tier 3, set:

      1. In the new line in Range, specify the CPU range: Start is 4 and leave Finish as Infinity.

      2. In Rate, specify 0.6 for the Fixed rate, and 0.2 for Variable.

        Tiered Chargeback

  6. Click Add at the bottom of the screen to save the chargeback rate.

The rate can now be assigned.

4.3. Assigning Chargeback Rates

ManageIQ allows you to assign chargeback rates by choosing from Compute and Storage. You can assign either a custom chargeback rate, or a default rate for Compute, Storage, or Container Images.

The Default Container Image Rate can be useful when applied to a containers provider with multiple images, where only some of the images have a chargeback rate assigned; the images without a custom rate will then use the default rate.

  1. Navigate to Cloud Intel  Chargeback.

  2. Click the Assignments accordion, and click either Compute or Storage.

4.3.1. Configuring Chargeback for Compute

Use Compute to assign a compute chargeback rate. You can assign chargeback rates to The Enterprise, Selected Cloud/Infrastructure Providers, Selected Clusters/Deployment Roles, Selected Containers Providers, Tagged VMs and Instances, Tagged Images, Labeled Images, or Tenants.

  2. For Tagged VMs and Instances and Tagged Images select a Tag Category.

  3. For each item to set, select the chargeback rate to use. The options displayed vary based on the type you select.

  4. Click Save.

4.3.2. Configuring Chargeback for Storage

Use Storage to assign a storage chargeback rate. You can assign chargeback rates to The Enterprise, Selected Datastores, Tagged Datastores, or Tenants.

  1. From the Basic Info area, use the Assign To list to select a type of assignee to assign the rate set to.

  2. For Tagged Datastores select a Tag Category.

  3. For each item to set, select the chargeback rate to use. The options displayed vary based on the type you select.

  4. Click Save.

The rate is assigned. The next time you generate a chargeback report, these values will be used.

When viewing chargeback, there is a rate for a virtual machine for the number of the CPUs. The chargeback for this parameter is calculated based on when the virtual machine is running. If the virtual machine is not running, then it is not charged for CPU allocation.

4.4. Creating a Chargeback Report

ManageIQ allows you to create chargeback reports to monitor costs you charged.

When creating a chargeback report, the Total Cost is the complete cost for the chosen workload over the selected time frame. Total costs are calculated by adding the calculated costs for the amount used and the amount allocated for the time frame.

Alert is raised when an server has exceeded its system memory limit and begins killing workers. Default is 80%.

Threshold configured in Advanced Settings.

server:

:worker_monitor:

:kill_algorithm:

:name: :used_swap_percent_gt_value

:value: 80

This may be caused by the following issues:

The server is running with too few resources.

The server is enabled with too many roles or number of workers.

The server picked up all the roles because another server has failed.

A runaway process has taken up most of the memory.

EVM Server is Master

When one server takes over as a master server.

Typically, this should only occur when first starting a set of servers, perhaps following expected outages. If a server picks up as master in other situations, the old master had an issue that needs to be researched (such as server not responding in time).

EVM Server High System Disk Usage

The server’s system disk is 80% full. This check is run as part of a system schedule.

Threshold configured in Advanced Settings.

server:

events:

:disk_usage_gt_percent: 80

Temp files used by the operating system may be filling the disk. Yum updates, normal /tmp files, or temp files in /var/lib/data/miqtemp/ may cause the problem.

EVM Server High App Disk Usage

The server’s app disk is 80% full. This check is run as part of a system schedule.

Threshold configured in Advanced Settings.

server:

events:

:disk_usage_gt_percent: 80

Server temp files may remain.

EVM Server High Log Disk Usage

The server’s log disk is 80% full. This check is run as part of a system schedule.

Threshold configured in Advanced Settings.

server:

events:

:disk_usage_gt_percent: 80

Logs are getting too big or are not being log rotated properly every day. Review the most recent logs.

EVM Server High DB Disk Usage

The server’s db disk is 80% full. This check is run as part of a system schedule. Applies if using PostgreSQL as the VDMB.

Threshold configured in Advanced Settings.

server:

events:

:disk_usage_gt_percent: 80

Database or database logging is getting too large. May require full vacuuming of PostgreSQL database.

EVM Worker Started

Alert is raised when a worker is about to start.

This is a notification. Failover may trigger this alert.

EVM Worker Stopped

Alert is raised when a worker is requested to stop.

Review logs for reason in the event the worker was not purposefully stopped.

EVM Worker Killed

Alert is raised when a non- responsive worker does not restart on its own and is killed.

Review logs for reason the worker was killed. May be the result of EVM Worker Not Responding.

EVM Worker Not Responding

Alert is raised when a worker has not responded for 2 minutes (:heartbeat_timeout) or has not started within 10 minutes (:starting_timeout).

An influx of events from the Virtual Center or Red Hat Virtualization causes an inability of EVM/CFME to handle the capacity at which they are being queued. Utilize the Event Handler Configuration to filter events that are causing problematic queue table growth.

EVM Worker Exceeded Memory Limit

Alert is raised when a worker exceeds the memory threshold. The default is 150 MB, but some workers have their own value in the :memory_threshold section for that specific worker.

Review logs for reason the worker is exceeding the memory limit. This may be the result of an overload to the worker process that requires further investigation.

EVM Worker Exceeded Uptime Limit

Alert is raised when a worker has been running longer than the :restart_interval. (Most workers are set to never restart using the 0.hours setting.) The EMS Refresh SmartProxy workers are set to restart every 2 hours.

Review logs for the reason the worker is exceeding the limit. This may be the result of an overload to the worker process that needs further investigation.

EVM Worker Exit File

Alert is raised when the scheduler worker exits due to a pending large ntp time change.

This is a notification.
