Specifying per-unit costs for resources
In infrastructure orchestration designer, right click on the server group to display the Config tab,
where you can enter costs per number of servers in the server group, processors per server, and
memory size.
Costs for a server in an IO template is split into three values:
Base Cost per Server
Encompasses all of the costs for the server except CPU and
memory cost. It may include availability characteristics and
type characteristics (physical, virtual, cloud). This cost does
not change during the lifecycle of the server.
Cost per Processor Cost per CPU in the server. This cost pushes the server cost
up and down during the lifecycle of the server based on the
changes performed by the user. This allows the server cost to
be adjusted together with the server configuration.
Cost per Unit of Memory Cost per unit of memory in the server. Server cost is also
updated for changes to the server configuration based on the
memory amount assigned to the server.
The Total Cost per Server is calculated as follows:
Total Cost per Server = Base Cost + (CPU cost per unit * CPU units) + (Memory cost per unit *
Memory units)
In infrastructure orchestration designer, right click on a network or trunk to display the Config tab,
where you can enter the cost per IP address.
