VMware storage usage reporting
Hello EE,
We have a virtual infrastructure and what is happening is when storage gets near capacity the next group who needs a project gets billed for the new storage. Does anyone have a good reporting tool/model/strategy for billing back the departments for their use of the storage required for the virtual infrastructure?
Thanks

Thank you for the valuable options
one way is to assign storage to each department or assign VM with a prefix for each department...with that done..you can simply export the virtual machines list in your cluster/VC to a excel file and assign costs to memory/cpu/storage in use and bill the relevant team accordingly.
