Metering vCenter Ops Management Standard and Adnvanced usage

Hi everyone,

Can vCloud Usage Meter 3.3.1 meter the usage of vCenter Operations Management Standard and Adnvanced ?

The two products need the numbers of VMs under operations.

If Usage Meter could not meter those products, we have to collect the usage reports (about two products) from SPs by manually ?

thanks in advance,

Usage Meter should monitor vCenter and check for associated applications (Like vCOps). It's mentioned in the Guide, but I think you just just add the vCenter then provide credentials when the vCOps instance is discovered (if required).

I believe that the vCloud Usage Meter, cannot see /report which version it is using.

So if using anything else than Enteprise vCOPS as part of Premier Plus, you need to report it manually.

This should be done by looking at vCenter's and licensing > Products > vCops amount of VM's.

Can anyone please confirm?
