NAME
ppu – Pay Per Use software for HP-UX
DESCRIPTION
Pay Per Use (PPU) is a program under which customers pay only for
computing capacity that they use.
The PPU Software provides services for metering resource utilization on
supported HP systems. The PPU software communicates with a utility
meter to report utilization data. The utility meter in turn transmits the
utilization data to HP for proper billing.
PPU systems must be configured to use a utility meter. Utility meter
configuration is accomplished using the ppuconfig command (see
ppuconfig(1M)).
The data that is sent to HP is aggregated and then sent to billing as well
as posted on the utility portal for viewing at

For more information see the Pay Per Use user's guide located at
/usr/share/doc/PayPerUseUserGuide.pdf.
