Reporting to IBM
IT Asset Management
(Cloud)
IT Asset Management provides a digitally-signed report package that is ready for you to
submit to IBM for audits. The package includes the following reports:
- IBM Cloud Pak consumption report
- IBM MVS license consumption report
- IBM PVU license consumption report
- IBM RU license consumption report
- IBM VPC license consumption report
- IBM Unlicensed Installations report
This package can be used as a trusted source for audit as the data contained in the package can be validated for authenticity. It meets IBM's reporting requirements and is accepted by IBM.
Tip: Although some of the reports are very
similar to those from ILMT, there are acceptable presentation differences between
ILMT and IT Asset Management reports of sub-capacity licensing. IBM's
sub-capacity reporting requirements do not require exact copies of the ILMT reports
(nor is IT Asset Management intended to copy ILMT).
Important: Reports show data based on the latest full license
reconciliation calculations. In fact, if for some reason you have not yet run a
full (overnight) license reconciliation since switching to high-frequency PVU
mode for IT Asset Management, reports like IBM PVU License
Consumption are unable to display any data.
