Specifications

Therefore the tool exists in two places: as a functional part of Designer and also as a standalone

executable.

The standalone Wizard is called PowerSwitchDataCollector.exe or PowerSwitchDataCollector.app.

When the flavor of the Switch is Full or Light, the name of the wizard corresponds to the flavor.

For example: FullSwitchDataCollector.exe and LightSwitchDataCollector.exe etc. The standalone

Wizard is added into Switch installers (both on Mac and Windows) and can be found near Designer

executable/bundle.

The tool is implemented as a wizard. The wizard is placed in a separate library which is used by

both the designer and the external executable. When the wizard is invoked from Designer UI (by

a menu item) it works in extended mode and allows exporting .sflows. When it is invoked from

standalone executable, it does not allow creating ".sflow". It collects raw flow XMLs and Property

sets.

19.3 GUI

The GUI visible to the user when the Data Collecting Wizard is invoked from a standalone tool is

slightly smaller than the GUI which is visible when invoked from the Designer UI. This is because

of the unavailability of certain features when invoked from a standalone tool.

Wizard in Designer

In the Designer UI, navigate to File > Collect application data to invoke the wizard. The Welcome

dialog box of the Data Collecting Wizard appears. Follow the steps given below to select the data

and zip it:

Click Next button in the Welcome dialog box. Click Next button in the subsequent dialog box.

Select checkboxes to include the corresponding data items in the zip package. All items are

selected by default, some items are disabled so users cannot uncheck them. They are present

in the UI to enable users to view what data is being sent to Enfocus support team. When users

are not able to upload files because of size, they can uncheck some of the data items and try

again to upload.

The options available are:
