Overview
...
A CSP tenant is a
...
HyperCloud™ Platform (HCP) tenant linked with a CSP
...
. This is done by the Cloud Administrator (CA) after having enabled and configured a minimum set of requirements.
...
Note:
Every tenant role has to go through the
...
CSP-tenant
...
process (click here for more details).
That customer once linked has to have pricing factors such as tax-rebate or discount set along with monitoring enabled on any one of the subscription.
All these
...
requirements are fulfilled by the CA while or after on-boarding a customer to
...
HCP as a tenant
...
.
If these requirements are not fulfilled, the behavior of the tenant will be no different
...
than a HCP tenant
...
without CSP features
...
.
...
A
...
HCP Tenant when linked to CSP customer reflects all the cost and utilization information for all the resources that are part of the subscriptions under monitor (if enabled
...
). This page explains the following processes:

Report Scheduling
...
Cost and utilization information provides a summary and a subscription-wise detailed statistical data for the resources
...
. It also facilitates a tenant to schedule periodic reports based on date and services specified in the scheduling dialog
...
. It can also deliver generated reports back to the recipients provided via email.
Cost and Optimization Report Scheduling
...
To enable Cost and Optimization report scheduling:
Login to your HCP account.
Navigate to Customer Management
...
> Azure
...
CSP > Selectthe Cost/Optimization Tab.
...
...
The Cost view displays data collected over time for a specific subscription and
...
categorizes it per services
...
(Bandwidth, Storage , Virtual Machines and Virtual Network etc).
...
A user/customer can not only view cost variations for its resource though the
...
HCP portal but also has two other option to capture on demand or as required via Download Report and Report Scheduling
...
features.
Download Report
This feature enables users to download the reports as produced on the screen in the Excel format.
This report will divide cost data
...
per services for the subscription, over a date range as selected along with the summary view.
...
Report Scheduling
...
When you click on
...
the
...
Report Scheduling button, a scheduler model window will pop up to enable
...
you to schedule timely delivery of
...
reports through the email defined in the recipient list.
...
This provides
...
customers with options to set periodical report generation for multiple
...
subscriptions at a time
...
. You can also define periods on which this data needs to be captured and delivered.
...
Note: Report scheduling will generate reports in excel format
...
. Depending on the number of subscriptions scheduled
...
, that many reports attached to the recipient's mail.
Optimization Report scheduling
...
works the same way as cost based scheduling and will provide timely optimization based recommendation reports based on the subscriptions selected and periodical cycle defined
...
.
...
This will provide the customers with timely reports to compare resource utilization over time and decide on the recommendations provided by
...
HCP Monitor and Analytical Service
...
. This key feature will enable users to recognize their idle, low or high utilization resources, those of which may need attention or resizing based on their utilization drops or hikes over a period of time.
Instance analysis reports not only will put forth compute and storage variations but will also bring about how much a customer can optimize and balance utilization and cost matrices to achieve cost effectiveness and regulate configurations.
Usage Report Scheduling
...
For Usage Report Scheduling:
Login to your HCP account.
Go to Customer Management
...
> Azure
...
CSP > Select the Usage Tab.
...
Usage view works the same way as cost and optimization
...
. Instead of costs, this view provides usage based metrics over a selected period of time
...
.
This divides data being collected into services and further details it into multiple date
...
ranges as selected
...
.
...
You can download reports either directly from the usage screen based on the selection criteria or
...
you can
...
schedule for multiple subscriptions and time
...
periods for intended recipients.
Disabling Report Scheduling
...
Report scheduling for cost, usage and optimization can
...
be disabled whenever required from a toggle button on the scheduler window.
