Yes, done, ESALPS provides you all the data you want.

Has anyone played around with using the VM accounting data, along with Linux

a way to assign usage as the VM level (i.e. host CPU hours) to individual
processes?

I'm thinking of a grid environment, where you would want to assign usage to
accounts -- not at the server level - but at the process level.  Given a set
CPU hour rate at the VM level - you could (hopefully) accurately determine
the real cost of individual Linux processes.   Maybe cut C0 z/VM accounting
records daily from Linux (using cpint) to feed the data to the VM accounting
file.

I'm not sure it's even possible.. but perhaps through some statistical
formula (overall cost of CPU for VM guest is x - process y used 10% of it)
you can get close?

Any thoughts.. ?
