I was told that SoftLayer charges $0.25 per GB for storage space used by each of the image template created. I've created a virtual guest and create an image template using it. How do I know how much space it has taken for storing the generated image template?
How can I get this information using SoftLayer service APIs?
Thank you.
try this it will return all your images templates and the disk space for them:
GET https://api.softlayer.com/rest/v3.1/SoftLayer_Account/getPrivateBlockDeviceTemplateGroups?objectMask=mask[children[blockDevices[diskImage]]]
you can see the value for the "diskSpace" field under "blockDevices" e.g.
blockDevices":
{
"device": "0"
"diskImageId": 12456903
"diskSpace": 36381956096
"groupId": 883223
"id": 1065801
"units": "B"
in case your image template have more than 1 disk you have to sum all the diskspaces.
Regards
