Considerations for configuring Avaya OneCloud™ Subscription systems of the same subscription offer in multiple Usage Metering Collectors

Last Updated : Dec 22, 2020 |
Prolog information
If you operate in multiple data centers that do not have connectivity between them, then consider the following to configure the Avaya OneCloud™ Subscription systems that are part of your subscription offer in these data centers and monitor the service usage:
  • You must install and configure a new Usage Metering Collector in these data centers.
    Note:
    Ensure that you perform a new installation of the Usage Metering Collector in the data centers. Do not select the Restore from backup option when performing the installation.
    For more information, see Installing Usage Metering Collector.
  • Use the same Access key and Secret key to configure connectivity for each of these Usage Metering Collectors.
    Usage Metering retrieves your Avaya OneCloud™ Subscription offer from the Avaya back-office system and populates it in the Usage Metering Collectors. You can identify the subscription offer by its offer ID. This offer ID contains the entire list of your subscribed Avaya OneCloud™ Subscription systems. You can identify the Avaya OneCloud™ Subscription systems by their subscription IDs.
  • On each Usage Metering Collector, configure the Avaya OneCloud™ Subscription systems that you want for the data center.
    For more information, see Avaya OneCloud™ Subscription system management.
    For more information about the deployment models, see Avaya OneCloud Subscription system deployment models.
    Important:
    Do not configure the same Avaya OneCloud™ Subscription system in more than one Usage Metering Collector. You can identify an Avaya OneCloud™ Subscription system by its subscription ID.
    Configuring the same Avaya OneCloud™ Subscription system in more than one Usage Metering Collector causes duplicate usage calculation because multiple Usage Metering Collectors then perform usage data collection of the applications that are configured in the Avaya OneCloud™ Subscription system.
