Prerequisites for adding Data Collectors (File Analytics)

  • 64-bit OS. See the Certified Configurations Guide for supported operating systems.

  • Supports Amazon Corretto 17. Amazon Corretto is a no-cost, multi-platform, production-ready distribution of the Open Java Development Kit (OpenJDK).

  • For performance reasons, do not install Data Collectors on the same server as the IT Analytics Portal. However, if you must have both on the same server, verify that the Portal and Data Collector software do not reside in the same directory.

  • Install only one Data Collector on a server (or OS instance).
