Learn how you can now assign which data collectors collect metadata from your storage devices. Also, you can now change the name of the data collector that is displayed in the GUI so that it is easier to identify.
For example, you can configure your data collection services as follows:
- Assign data collectors to devices based on the locations of the data centers.
- Assign data collectors to devices by production, development, or test platform to comply with your company's data governance rules.
- Assign multiple data collectors to devices so that if one data collector fails another data collector takes over.
- Assign data collectors to groups of devices to optimize and balance data collection services.
TIP: All data collectors are available to monitor all devices by default. If you turn off the feature, all data collectors are automatically set to monitor all devices.
