In CPBM 2.1 on the dashboard screen what does the Active Subscriptions value represent?
I have CPBM 2.1 configured with the ACS connector, when a user purchases a VM, under the "Manage Services > "Manage Resources" the ACS dashboard in CPBM shows Running VMs=1, Total VMs=1. However, the CPBM dashboard shows Active Subscriptions=0.
If I then login to CPBM as ROOT the dashboard also shows Active Subscriptions=0.
Should the Active Subscriptions show 1 ?
Is this a bug or does something need to be configured somewhere?
If you launched a VM through the ACS console or through the API, CPBM will take upto a day to create a subscription for it. It will do it when it collects usage for the previous day (and detects that this VM has no subscription).
I launched a VM through the ACS console, CPBM sent me 2x identical "VM Launch Notification" emails, but it has been a day and a subscription has not been created yet.
1) What is the batch job that detects that a VM has no subscription and creates one for it? 2) Once CPBM creates such a subscription, how does it then know what to charge for that VM?
