RUM Report and Report Acknowledgement
A Resource Utilization Measurement report (RUM report) is a license usage report, which the product instance
generates, to fulfil reporting requirements as specified by the policy.
An acknowledgement (ACK) is a response from CSSM and provides information about the status of a RUM
report.
The policy that is applied to a product instance determines the following reporting requirements:
• Whether a RUM report is sent to CSSM and the maximum number of days provided to meet this
requirement.
• Whether the RUM report requires an acknowledgement (ACK) from CSSM.
• The maximum number of days provided to report a change in license consumption.
A RUM report may be accompanied by other requests, such as a trust code request, or a SLAC request. So
in addition to the RUM report IDs that have been received, an ACK from CSSM may include authorization
codes, trust codes, and policy files as well.
The reporting method, that is, how a RUM report is sent to CSSM, depends on the topology you implement.
Trust Code
A UDI-tied public key with which the product instance signs a RUM report. This prevents tampering and
ensures data authenticity.
