Description

📝 Scenario

As a licensing administrator, I need to work out how many VM cores in my BYOS RHEL / SUSE servers are enabled for Azure Hybrid Benefit and be able to report on this (whether it be PowerBI or in a Workbook). In the PowerBI report currently all Linux images show as Not Supported.

💎 Solution

AHB applies to the Linux VMs running with license type RHEL_BYOS or SUSE_BYOS, which appears under the ProductImageType column in the CostDetails dataset. Recommend to include these as HybridBenefitStatus = Enabled.

ℹ️ Additional context

Table showing product image type and hybrid benefit status

Azure Hybrid Benefit for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) virtual machines
