Notes on using Host Data Collector computers in a cluster configuration
Note the following when you use Host Data Collector computers in a cluster configuration.
• All nodes in the cluster must have the same disk configuration. The same Host Data Collector in-
stallation destination (drive name and path name) must be used.
• If you want to change the Host Data Collector settings after installation, specify the same settings
for all nodes.
• While the Host Data Collector service on the executing node is running, the Host Data Collector
service (Host Data Collector Base Service) on the standby node must also be active.
Registering a Host Data Collector computer on the management server
If Host Data Collector is installed on a computer other than the management server, you need to add
the information for that computer to the properties in the hostdatacollectors.properties file
on the Device Manager server.
When the information for the Host Data Collector computer is registered on the management server,
you can register hosts and check the volume usage on each host.
