Prerequisites for adding Data Collectors (Hitachi Block)

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

  • 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.

  • 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).

  • Note the port used by the Hitachi (Block) Data Collector: TCP 2001. The HIAA probe uses 22015 for Http and 22016 for Https.

  • If collecting performance data, the Data Collector must be installed on the same server as HTnM (Tuning Manager). And, a single Data Collector policy must be used to collect both the capacity data from the Device Manager server and the performance data from the Tuning Manager server.

  • Gather the following required configuration details:

    • HDvM Name or IP Address

    • HDvM User ID & Password: For HDvM 7.1.1 and 7.2, the user ID must have view permissions to HRpM and HTSM.

    • HTnM Install Location: Location of the HTnM (Tuning Manager) server installation directory.
