Hi,
I'm using around 1,3 TB S3 storage at OVH (around 1TB as DEEP ARCHIVE) and set a alarm for 8 EUR/months. While transfering data into the storage, I got several alarm mails last night:

  • 01:43h: usage 9,66 EUR, predicted 523,84 EUR
  • 03:13h: usage 13,80 EUR, predicted 687,26 EUR
  • 04:14h: usage 13,80 EUR, predicted 179,51 EUR
  • 09:14: usage 32,40 EUR, predicted 33,17 EUR

While the webinterface shows a usage of 0,62 EUR und 1,02 EUR prediced.

Does anybody has a clue what's wrong there with their mails?

    Just from looking at the datapoints it seems like it extrapolates out to full month even if the reference period of data available is very short. That's why it's starting off high and converging with actual usage

    Yes, but this doesn't explain the difference regarding the current consumption.

    Why not ask OVH, the company that coded both the s3 stuff and the alarm email notification stuff?

    Hey teamacc. You're a dick. (c) Jon Biloh, 2020.

    Because their old support mail address went away and now they have some help center. But I'll ask there now.
