Prerequisites for Adding Data Collectors (Hitachi NAS)
Identify a server where the Data Collector software will be installed. Server requirements include:
Support Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 1.7
Reside in the same time zone as the subsystem from which data will be collected
For performance reasons, APTARE StorageConsole Data Collectors should not be installed on the same server as the StorageConsole Portal. If, for some reason, you require both to be on the same server, the Portal and Data Collector software should not reside in the same directory on the server.
 
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:
HNAS Admin EVS Address
User ID & Password: Credentials with supervisor privileges for accessing the Hitachi NAS.
Server Control (SSC) Utility Location: Location of the SSC command-line utility.
