Plan host Data Collection

Prior to configuring IT Analytics to discover your host inventory, you must identify the hosts for which you will be collecting data. Because each enterprise has a unique inventory of hosts with specific access requirements and restrictions, the process of ensuring successful host data collection requires an assessment of the hosts in your environment and several configuration steps.
