ADP License Usage for the Last 30 Days
Your ADP license entitles you to a specified number of managed products and amount of managed traffic. The ADP License Usage for the Last 30 Days panel shows your ADP data usage for the previous month.
The graph shows all traffic in your ADP environment.
-
Green (the default) indicates that data usage is within your licensed limit.
- Amber indicates periods when your data usage approached your licensed traffic limit.
- Red indicates periods when your data usage exceeded your licensed traffic limit.
The Active Loggers indicate the number of ADP Loggers the data from which contributes to the license monitoring report. For more details, you can export the license report to PDF format, which includes data on the last 365 days.
If your ArcMC is enabled as a License Server, the Daily Usage bar chart displays the overall ADP license consumption on a daily basis. The daily license usage is calculated from the managed connectors (version of 7.3.0 or later) and managed ADP loggers based on the following:
- If a Connector is managed by ArcMC, then ArcMC will include its event ingestion from all non-ADP or non-managed source devices in the ADP daily license usage calculation. If a source is also a managed ADP component, the event flow from this source to the managed Connector will not be tracked.
- If an ADP Logger is managed by ArcMC, then ArcMC will include its event ingestion from all non-ADP or non-managed source devices in the ADP daily license usage calculation. If a source is also a managed ADP component, the event flow from this source to the managed ADP Logger will not be tracked.
Each day, ArcMC collects the daily ingestion information from each Connector and ADP Logger. Connectors and Loggers give an accumulated ingestion total when not reachable by ArcMC at the time of ingestion collection (daily at 1:00:00 ArcMC local time by default). This scenario could be caused by any of the following:
- The ADP Logger or Connector was down.
- The ADP Logger or Connector’s server certificate has changed.
- The ADP Logger or Connector was not managed by the ArcMC.
If any managed nodes (Connector, ADP Logger) are not reachable during ingestion collection time, the daily consumption of these nodes will be counted and reflected in the consumption number on a daily report, when ArcMC license server has successfully pulled the consumption data from the affected nodes.
The ingestion report on an individual ADP Logger includes its previous day’s ingestion during the time window of [00:00:00 – 23:59:59] GMT. For license usage calculation, ArcMC collects the previous ADP Logger’s ingestion during the time window of [01:00:00 – 24:59:59] ArcMC local time. The time window used for individual Logger ingestion tracking and ingestion calculation are different; hence, it is not recommended to compare these two reports because they will report different numbers.
