Workload Guardian License
Workload Guardian offers cloud account monitoring and protection around the virtual machines.
There are 3 types of virtual machines that count towards Workload Guardian license usage:
|
Cloud Platform |
Virtual Machine Type |
|---|---|
| Amazon AWS | EC2 instances |
| Microsoft Azure | Azure Virtual machines |
| Google Cloud Platform | Compute engine VM instances |
Requirement
Requires all cloud accounts to have equal or less number of seats as the number of virtual machines to maintain monitoring.
Insufficient License /License over usage
- Monitoring stops when the number of virtual machines exceed the number of license seats for more than 48 hours.
- After 48 hours, the cloud account with the least number of virtual machines will be stopped to minimize impact, the account status will be shown as "Off by System".
- Storage Guardian will also stop monitoring when Workload Guardian stops monitoring the same cloud account.
|
If your cloud account status is "Off by System", it is due to license over usage. For more details on turning Workload Guardian back on, please see Turn on Workload Guardian |
