Prerequisites for Adding Data Collectors (HP EVA)
1. Identify a server where the Data Collector software will be installed. Server requirements include:
• 64-bit OS. See the APTARE StorageConsole Certified Configurations Guide for supported operating systems.
• Support Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 1.7.
• For performance reasons, APTARE recommends that you do not install Data Collectors on the same server as the StorageConsole 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 HP EVA Data Collector: TCP 2372.
• Gather the following required configuration details:
• HP EVA Management Server: IP addresses or host name.
• SSSU Home: Location of the SSSU (Storage System Scripting Utility) command-line utility on the Data Collector.
• Array User ID & Password: Credentials for a view-only user for the HP EVA Management System.
•
