Add a Google Cloud CI class type to ensure accurate billing data

Specify the details of a new CI or CI type to enable the CI placement process to assign cost and usage data correctly. The process is a part of Billing Download job execution. The CI placement process associates downloaded cost and usage data with the appropriate CIs.

このタスクについて

Billing Download jobs store downloaded billing data in the billing node table. The Class Type table holds CI type definitions for the cost usage table. Cloud Cost Management executes the CI placement process to associate the billing and usage data with CIs in the CMDB. The CI placement process queries the billing node table using the CI type definitions that reside in the CI placement type table. For a new CI (or a CI type from a new provider), you specify the parameters that uniquely define the CI, a CI type definition, and a class type table to store the CI type definition.

The CI placement type table for Google Cloud [sn_cld_intg_gcp_ci_placement_type] inherits from the Core CI placement type table (sn_cld_intg_core_ci_placement_type).

手順

1. Go to the CI placement type table and select New.

2. Fill in the form.

   

   表 : 1. CI Placement Type Information form

   Field	Description
   Class type	CMDB class type table that this type of CI is stored in. New CIs of this type are added to the table.
   Name	Name of the CI type.
   Query table	Billing node table that the CI placement process queries to find instances of the CI type. Query table is sn_cld_gcp_cost_usage and cannot be changed.
   Query params	Parameter values in the billing node table that uniquely define the CI type.

3. After you add a class type, you must reimport billing and usage data to ensure that CIs are correctly placed into the new type.
   注:

   The supported CIs are placed after the Cumulus Unsupported CI Placement scheduled job runs daily. For more information, see Supported CI class types for Google Cloud services.
