Hello,

I have an issue with Aria Operations 8.18.3 (24521408) Enterprise. I would like to setup for virtual machines to calculate cost based on MHz/GHz. I've checked the options and only these 3 are available: 


however based on the Broadcom documentation it should be available:

Does anyone have an idea what the problem could be?

Thank you!

@Attila Darvasi,

The pricing card can be cost-based or rate-based, you can customize the cost-based pricing card and rate-based pricing card as per your requirement. After configuring the pricing card, you can assign it to one more vCenter or Clusters based on your pricing strategy.

For instructions, I would recommend you to refer VMware Aria Operations 8.18 configuration guide starting Page 594.

Yes, I know that, I already tried to create a Rate-Based pricing card but the MHz per vCPU option was not available as You see in the attached screenshot. If you're using a Cloud Director - in my case it is not available - You are able to add, but for a single vCenter instance that option is not showing.
