Hi,
All that Aggreggator cares about is the total vRAM usage for all of your clients. "License Summary Report" provides that information and because it is stripped out of all detailed polling information, it's small size makes it very easy to attach to an email.
Straight from Usage Meter Guide:
“License Summary Report
This report provides information such as vSphere license type, category, if license is
billable, Billed vRAM in GB, and Capped Billed vRAM in GB. Un-capped and capped
memory totals are based on the sum of all hourly collections for each license type. This
report replaces the Aggregate Billing report for vCloud Usage Meter releases previous to
version 2.3 and is sent to the aggregator for use in monthly reporting.”
“Detailed Billing Report
This is a generic report that provides billing information for all types of vSphere licenses
and is also used for sending usage details to the aggregator assigned to the service
provider (optional). Virtual machine usage reported is based on which vSphere license
keys are selected as VSPP keys.”
