Updated Log Parser for Hyper-V Bandwidth Meter

Log Parser for Hyper-V Bandwidth Meter now creates 2 reports.

The first one is a HTML report showing the daily bandwidth usage of Hyper-V virtual machines (incoming and outgoing traffic in separate table columns) as long as the total usage per machine for selected period.

The second one is a simple short list of Hyper-V virtual machines (virtual servers) and their traffic usage for the period. This brief report is in CSV format and it is easy to import it to Excel or some database (e.g. your billing system).

Moreover, you can customize the report templates to fit your needs!
