B.1 Types of Metering Logs

There are two types of metering logs: event logs and periodic logs.
Each of these types of logs is explained below:
Event logs
Event logs are logs that are output when the status of a resource has changed, such as when an L-Platform is created or canceled or when
an L-Server is started or stopped. An event log records resource attribute information such as the date and time at which the event occurred,
event type, information for identifying the resource, and allocation amount.
The following table shows the timing at which event logs will be output:
Event Event identifier
Adding ADD
Changing CHANGE
Deleting DELETE
Starting START
Stopping STOP
*1: The event log for L-Platform template is output for tenant-specific templates. The event log is not output for global templates. The
CHANGE log will be output if the template name is changed. If only other basic information and configuration information are changed,
the CHANGE log will not be output.
*2: The event log for software will be output based on the software information that has been registered in the image information of
the L-Server. The timing of software addition or deletion events is synchronized with L-Server addition or deletion events, respectively.
Periodic logs
Periodic logs are logs that show the periodic operational status of resources.
The following table shows the timing at which periodic logs will be output:
Event Event identifier
Period PERIOD
Timing of event
When a resource is added and when the
resource is actually secured
When a resource is changed
When a resource deletion is requested
If an approval workflow is enabled, when an
approval or assessment is performed
When starting a resource is complete
When stopping a resource is requested
