Prerequisites for Adding Data Collectors (Hitachi Block)
 
64-bit OS. See the APTARE StorageConsole Certified Configurations Guide for supported operating systems.
Support Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 1.8.
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 Hitachi (Block) Data Collector: TCP 2001.
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.
