NAME

ppu – Pay Per Use software for HP-UX

DESCRIPTION

Pay Per Use (PPU) is a program under which customers pay only for computing capacity that they use.

The PPU Software provides services for metering resource utilization on supported HP systems. The PPU software communicates with a utility meter to report utilization data. The utility meter in turn transmits the utilization data to HP for proper billing.

PPU systems must be configured to use a utility meter. Utility meter configuration is accomplished using the ppuconfig command (see ppuconfig(1M)).

The data that is sent to HP is aggregated and then sent to billing as well as posted on the utility portal for viewing at http://www.hp.com/go/payperuse.

For more information see the Pay Per Use user's guide located at /usr/share/doc/PayPerUseUserGuide.pdf.
