Introduction
This section includes the instructions for installing the Data Collector software on the Data Collector Server. Data Collector software is supported in various flavors of Linux and Windows. On Windows, if you are collecting data from host resources, you may need to install the WMI Proxy Service. The WMI Proxy Service is installed by default, as part of the Data Collector installation on a Windows server.
A GUI based version is available for Windows and a console (command line) based interface is available for Linux.
When the NetBackup 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.
Note:
Log in as a Local Administrator to have the necessary permissions for this installation.
