<div>Hey Seshu,</div>

<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"></span>1) Yes, that will be contained within the publisher_id field of the message body</div>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"></span>2) We should be able to get customer related data from the message where it makes sense. It would be contained within the payload dictionary. Given that not all messages are going to be related
to customers, we shouldn't explicitly force this in the standard message attributes</div>
<div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"></span>3) The mandatory fields on the nova side of things are: message_id, publisher_id, timestamp, priority, event_type, and payload. Payload is a dictionary containing the data that Nova is sending
a notification for in the first place. On the Rackspace side of things, outside of System Usages, no message headers have been defined to my knowledge. We're simply designing the transport mechanism. Dragon can weigh in more on what usages will look like.</div>

<div>Ya, the usages are pretty simple notifications. They all have the account ID/user on them. </div>
<div>By IP address, do you mean source IP for the api request? That we do not have (the usages are often generated by the worker processes long after the api call is over) </div>
<div>If you mean IP of the instance, that can be looked up from the instance id. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>For instance usages (create/delete/resize, etc) they have the instance ID, and type (flavor).</div>
<div>For things like adding/removing IP's they have the IP and the instance id. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>For bandwidth usages, they have the bandwidth used, the period, and the instance. </div>
