I didn't think they really had to pay for the openstack assets, I didn't think they did anything with those. IIRC they had their own managed openstack contracts with their SLES customers before the acquisition, and were working on getting kube/paas offerings on top of that which they then scrapped for Rancher. So I know they burned a bunch of money too, but I don't think it was on the HPC or other openstack assets (HPC was the public cloud openstack offering that I think got shutdown sometime around the HPE split)
