Fees and Chargebacks

Type of Service How Charge is Calculated Rate
Backup of additional storage - per 100GB, based on 30 day retention & 1% daily change (e.g.: general applications): yearly cost This cost applies to physical or virtual servers hosted by CCS for departments where additional storage beyond the basic disc capacity for the O/S and application installations is required. The cost calculated is an estimate of the backup resources required to accommodate the daily rate of change of data for regular (unstructured data) environments. $8.07/year
Backup of additional storage - per 100GB, based on 30 day retention & 10% daily change (e.g.: Databases): yearly cost This cost applies to physical or virtual servers hosted by CCS for departments where additional storage beyond the basic disc capacity for the O/S and application installations is required. The cost calculated is an estimate of the backup resources required to accommodate the daily rate of change of data for database (structured data) environments. $24.82/year
IBM Tivoli storage manager extended edition 10 Processor Value Units (PVUS) License + software subscription and support for 12 months Price set by vendor (IBM). Estimated price per 10 PVU: ~$40.00. The required PVU total is based on the number of cores and type of server CPU. Details per 10 PVU
IBM Tivoli storage manager (TSM) extended edition 10 Processor Value Units (PVUS) Annual  software subscription and support renewal Price set by vendor (IBM). Estimated price per 10 PVU: ~$8.00. The required PVU total is based on the number of cores and type of server CPU. Details per 10 PVU
IBM TSM license for 1 Intel CPU core, based on a CPU type equivalent to 70 PVUs per core at $40.00 per core This is an example to guide you in the calculation of the backup software license cost for a physical server. The cost for each CPU core is approximate and can be confirmed with vendor at time of purchase. Please note that CPU sockets come with multiple CPU cores, and the server itself may have multiple CPU sockets. Hence, the total cost will be based on #sockets x #cores. The first year of support is included in the license cost, but following years require a support contract (~ 20% of initial cost). For example, if you licensed a server with 2 sockets and each socket had 5 CPU cores, the # of licensed cores would be 10 (2 sockets x 5 cores), and your backup software license, including 1st year of support, would cost ~ $2,800.00 ($280.00 x 10). $280.00 one time
IBM TSM license support for 1 Intel CPU core, based on a CPU type equivalent to 70 PVUs per core at $8.00 per core This is an example to guide you in the calculation of the backup software support cost for a physical server. The cost for each CPU core is approximate and can be confirmed with vendor at time of purchase. The first year of support is included in the license cost, but following years require a support contract (~ 20% of initial cost). For example, if you licensed a server with 2 sockets and each socket had 5 CPU cores, the # of licensed cores would be 10 (2 sockets x 5 cores), and your backup software support would cost ~ $560.00 per year ($56.00 x 10). $56.00/year
VM backup media & services Basic VM backup software license & support costs, backup infrastructure & services. These total cost is derived from one time backup license costs, yearly maintenance, media and other resources consumed by a basic virtual server (VM) with 40 GB of disc space.  Details (external link)  $84.00/year
