Subscription Usage for Threat Scan

You can view Threat Scan subscription usage in the Threat Scan Usage Report.

The report displays the peak or current front-end terabytes per client scanned. The front-end size is the source data capacity before compression and deduplication.

How Subscription Usage is Calculated

Commvault Cloud - Software

For Commvault Cloud - Software, Threat Scan metering is based on the amount of data that is backed up for a source VM, measured in front-end TB (FETB). Commvault defines a FETB as a TB of written client data, prior to Commvault compression or deduplication.

There are two types of calculations for data:

  • FETB: This calculation is used for single full backups.

  • FETB+: This calculation is used for combinations of full backups, incremental backups, and synthetic full backups. For FETB+, there are three different scenarios and calculations:

    • Full backups and incremental backups only: In this case, all full backups and all incremental backups are taken into consideration when calculating FETB.

    • Full backups, incremental backups, and synthetic full backups: In this case, all full backups and all incremental backups are taken into consideration, and synthetic full backups are ignored, when calculating FETB.

    • Incremental backups and synthetic full backups only: In this case, the maximum of the synthetic full backups and all the incremental backups are taken into consideration when calculating FETB.

Commvault Cloud - SaaS

For Marketplace SaaS customers, Threat can metering is based on FETB+ calculation (see above).

For regular SaaS customers, Threat Scan metering is based on either current usage or peak usage, measured in front-end TB (FETB). Commvault defines a FETB as a TB of written client data, prior to Commvault compression or deduplication.

  • Current: Current usage is the current amount of data scanned at any given time. The current license usage changes any time the size of scanned data increases or decreases, or any time an entity is added or removed.

  • Peak: Peak usage is the total amount of data scanned throughout the selected time frame. The peak continues to grow over the course of the time period as more data is scanned.

Note

  • These calculations are updated every 24 hours.

  • These calculations use FETB+ only (see description in "Commvault Cloud - Software", above).

  • These calculations are based on the primary data copy. Snap copies and secondary copies are not included in the calculations.

Procedure

  1. From the Command Center navigation pane, go to Manage > Account > Subscription and Usage > Usage.

    The Usage summary page appears, showing a summary of service subscriptions and their usage.

  2. Click Threat Scan.

    The Threat Scan usage report appears, showing the names of all the clients with front-end size scanned, as follows:
