Pre-Installation setup for File Analytics

In most cases, a single instance of the Data Collector can support any number of enterprise objects. However, each environment has its own unique deployment configuration requirements, so it is important to understand where the Data Collector software must be installed so that you can determine how many Data Collectors must be installed and which servers are best suited for the deployment.

When the IT Analytics system collects data from any vendor subsystem, the collection process expects name/value pairs to be in US English, and requires the installation to be done by an Administrator with a US English locale. The server's language version can be non-US English.
