Basic allocation cost/usage report

$

Hi Guys,

 

I'm trying to wrap my head around Chargeback manager but struggling a little bit here.

 

Hopefully someone can offer some advice as to how I can achieve what I'm after so I'll provide the basic overview:  I charge customers an amount based on the number of vCPU's, GB RAM and GB Storage allocated.  For instance, 1 allocated vCPU may be $50 per month and 2 allocated vCPUs may be $100 per month, etc... Memory might be something like $20 per GB allocated per month.  A VM with 1 vCPU, 2GB memory and 20GB storage might total something like $110 per month, whether the VM is powered on or off, or actively used or not used.

 

So what I would like to do, is be able to create a heirachy that consists of a resource pool (with child VMs), and run a report that spits out the above metrics in a nice output showing how much to charge based on the actual hardware allocated to the VMs.

 

Thanks in advance!

 

 

P.S.  Also is there a way to just get the cost results as a flat $50 instead of $2.40 if I only ran the report on a single VM for the duration of a day?
