Hi,
Thank you for taking the time to provide your ideas to IBM. We truly value our relationship with you and appreciate your willingness to share details about your experience, your recommendations, and ideas. IBM has evaluated the request and has determined that it cannot be implemented at this time or does not align with our current strategy or roadmap. If you want your request to considered once again, please submit a new idea no sooner than in six months time. Thank you for bringing your ideas to us. If you have any additional feedback, thoughts or ideas, or if there is anything else I can do, please do not hesitate to reply to this message to continue the conversation.
Many thanks for raising this idea.
Can you (and others) provide examples of the requirements for chargeback and showback reporting and the financial inputs required. For example: do you have a fully loaded cost per VM, Host or Storage per vCPU, GiB etc that you'd need to declare to Turbonomic in order for it to use when summarising the costs. What outputs would be required and into what other systems?
Thanks and regards,
Simon Ravenscroft
