1.7 Generating usage reports
Usage reports provide historical data about using the backup service. The following reports are
available:

Selected organization
This report contains statistics for a given organization. It can be used to charge organizations for
the backup service.

All organizations
This report contains statistics for all organizations that used the backup service in the reporting
period (including organizations for which the backup service is currently disabled).

Report for Acronis
This report contains the same information as the report for all organizations with the addition of
your company name and contact e-mail.
Reporting parameters
The values of all parameters are checked every day at 23:55 according to the time settings of vCloud
Director. The report uses the values as they were at that time.
The report includes the following parameters for the organization:

Number of protected VMs: The total number of protected machines (that is, the machines to
which backup plans are applied), no matter whether backups of those machines exist

Storage usage: The total size of all backups in the backup storage (in gigabytes). This parameter
may be excluded from the report, depending on the backup service settings.

Backed-up data: The total amount of data that was backed up. This amount includes the initial
content of the virtual machine disks and the subsequent incremental changes to that content.
