Install Data Collector binaries on Linux host (without configuration)
This installation allows you to install the Data Collector independent of the portal software installation. The collector remains disconnected from the portal until you configure it using a response file, that contains credentials of the Data Collector created on the NetBackup IT Analytics Portal and the data receiver.
To install a Data Collector:
- Download and mount the Data Collector installer
itanalytics_datacollector_linux_<version>.iso
.# mount -o loop <ISO file path> <path to mount>
- Install the Data Collector at a custom location.
# <path to mount>/dc_installer.sh -i <user selected path>
Example:
# <path to mount>/dc_installer.sh -i /usr/openv -n
A sample response file is saved when you install the Data Collector. To connect the Data Collector with the NetBackup IT Analytics Portal, you must configure its responsefile with the credentials of the Data Collector created on the portal and run a configuration command as described in the procedure below.
To configure the Data Collector:
- Obtain the following details from the NetBackup IT Analytics Portal:
Registration file downloaded from the Portal.
Proxy server configuration details
- Update the above values in the
responsefile.sample
.COLLECTOR_REGISTRATION_PATH=<path to the .json file> HTTP_PROXY_CONF=N HTTP_PROXY_ADDRESS= HTTP_PROXY_PORT= HTTPS_PROXY_ADDRESS= HTTPS_PROXY_PORT= PROXY_USERNAME= PROXY_PASSWORD= PROXY_EXCLUDE=
- Configure the data collector using the above response file.
# <path to mount>/dc_installer.sh -c <responsefile path>
or
<install location>/installer/ dc_installer.sh -c <responsefile path>{}
- Start the data collector service
# <install location>/mbs/bin/aptare_agent start
Run this command to uninstall the Data Collector.
