Chapter 2. August 2024
2.1. Major updates to Azure integrations
Based on customer feedback, the instructions for how to create an integration with Microsoft Azure were updated. The new version of the documentation reflects the latest changes to the Azure UI and aims to resolve customer pain points by being more clear and easy to follow.
There are two options when you create an integration: a basic path where you use unfiltered data, and an advanced path with filtered data. The instructions for both sections are updated.
To learn more about Azure and explore the new updates, go to Integrating Microsoft Azure data into cost management.
2.2. Attribute the cost of node attached storage to OpenShift Projects
Unattributed Storage is a type of project that gets created when cost management is unable to correlate a portion of the cloud cost to an OpenShift namespace.
There are two scenarios where Unattributed Storage can happen:
Volumes without a claim
- A persistent volume (PV) exists, but there are no persistent volume claims (PVCs) that use the volume. Without a claim, the cloud cost cannot be associated with a node or namespace.
Unutilized disk space
- In some situations, cost management creates its own project because it cannot determine which project should be charged with the money from Azure.
To learn more about how to calculate Unattributed Storage in Azure, see Unattributed Storage project.
