Issue/Introduction



Customer required list of storages devices that needs to be configured in monitoring.
But the clarification they required was regarding the license calculation mismatch difference. For  testing they configured one storage device (the first one on the above list) and ran the usage_metering probe, it produced the below data which didn’t match the DXIM storage licensing model (5TB = 1 license).

Resolution

The total storage capacity is mismatching because of backup volumes data , check the data by filtering out the backup volume data.
