Endpoint Data Collection
Infrastructure source endpoint data collection updates the CPU and installed memory count for physical
management interfaces.
Start Endpoint Data Collection Manually
Endpoint data collection runs automatically every 4 hours, but IaaS administrators can manually start
endpoint data collection at any time for endpoints that do not require proxy agents.
The Data Collection page provides information on the status and age of data collections and allows you
to manually start a new endpoint data collection.
Prerequisites
Log in to the vRealize Automation console as an IaaS administrator.
Procedure
1 Select Infrastructure > Endpoints > Endpoints.
2 Point to the endpoint for which you want to run data collection and click Data Collection.
3 Click Start.
4 (Optional) Click Refresh to receive an updated message about the status of the data collection you
initiated.
