# Activating SystemAnalyzer and Other Data Collection Sources

SystemAnalyzer is responsible for configuring data collection of a specific applications' host machine system resources.

The following sections will guide you on the required configuration to activate Application Monitoring and other data collection sources.

# Activating SystemAnalyzer

SystemAnalyzer is active by default; make sure it is activated before activating other data collection sources. If it is inactive, follow these instructions to activate:

Open a command prompt with Administrator level privileges.
Go to the bin directory, which is by default in C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\bin, run the command:
Command Syntax
```
cd $BIN_DIR
```
Example
```
cd C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\bin
```

Once in the directory, activate the data collection for SystemAnalyzer, run the command:

Command Syntax
openit_oconfinit -u "C:/Program Files/OpeniT/Core/Configuration/module-activation/system_analyzer.root.systemanalyzer.active=true"

openit_moduleactivator should run to reflect the configuration. By default, this happens every 6 hours, but if you want to activate the data collection for SystemAnalyzer immediately, run the command:

Command Syntax
openit_moduleactivator

Go to the bin directory, which is by default in /opt/openit/bin, run the command:
Command Syntax
```
cd $BIN_DIR
```
Example
```
cd /opt/openit/bin
```

Once in the directory, activate the data collection for SystemAnalyzer, run the command:

Command Syntax
./openit_oconfinit -u "/var/opt/openit/etc/module-activation/system_analyzer.root.systemanalyzer.active=true"

Command Syntax
./openit_moduleactivator

If you want to activate Application Monitoring on selected clients, follow the instructions in the Activating Features on Selected Clients section.

# Activating Process Accounting

Make sure that SystemAnalyzer is activated.

Process Accounting is active by default; make sure it is activated to turn on the application usage data collection. If it is inactive, follow these instructions to activate:

Open a command prompt with Administrator level privileges.
Go to the bin directory, which is by default in C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\bin, run the command:
Command Syntax
```
cd $BIN_DIR
```
Example
```
cd C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\bin
```

Once in the directory, activate the data collection for Process Accounting, run the command:

Command Syntax
openit_oconfinit -u "C:/Program Files/OpeniT/Core/Configuration/module-activation/system_analyzer.root.systemanalyzer.process-accounting.active=true"

openit_moduleactivator should run to reflect the configuration. By default, this happens every 6 hours, but if you want to activate the data collection for Process Accounting immediately, run the command:

Command Syntax
openit_moduleactivator

Go to the bin directory, which is by default in /opt/openit/bin, run the command:
Command Syntax
```
cd $BIN_DIR
```
Example
```
cd /opt/openit/bin
```

Once in the directory, activate the data collection for Process Accounting, run the command:

Command Syntax
./openit_oconfinit -u "/var/opt/openit/etc/module-activation/system_analyzer.root.systemanalyzer.process-accounting.active=true"

Command Syntax
./openit_moduleactivator

If you want to activate Process Accounting on selected clients, follow the instructions in the Activating Features on Selected Clients section.

# Activating System Activity Report (SAR)

Make sure that SystemAnalyzer is activated.

SAR is active by default; make sure it is activated to enable monitoring and collection of system performance reports. If it is inactive, follow these instructions to activate:

The Windows System Activity Report (WinSAR) provides detailed information about various system loads, including CPU activity, memory usage, interrupts, device load, network activity, and swap space utilization. It collects data using the Performance Monitor in the Windows system, allowing users to monitor machine load, input/output usage, and other system activities.

Open a command prompt with Administrator level privileges.
Go to the bin directory, which is by default in C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\bin, run the command:
Command Syntax
```
cd $BIN_DIR
```
Example
```
cd C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\bin
```

Once in the directory, activate the monitoring and collection of system performance reports for SAR, run the command:

Command Syntax
openit_oconfinit -u "C:/Program Files/OpeniT/Core/Configuration/module-activation/system_analyzer.root.systemanalyzer.sar.active=true"

openit_moduleactivator should run to reflect the configuration. By default, this happens every 6 hours, but if you want to activate the monitoring and collection of system performance reports for SAR immediately, run the command:

Command Syntax
openit_moduleactivator

SAR is a Unix System command that reports various system loads, including CPU activity, memory usage, interrupts, device load, network activity, and swap space utilization. It provides information on machine load, input/output usage, and other system activities.

Go to the bin directory, which is by default in /opt/openit/bin, run the command:
Command Syntax
```
cd $BIN_DIR
```
Example
```
cd /opt/openit/bin
```
Once in the directory, activate the monitoring and collection of system performance reports for SAR, run the command:
Command Syntax
```
./openit_oconfinit -u "/var/opt/openit/etc/module-activation/system_analyzer.root.systemanalyzer.sar.active=true"
```

Command Syntax
./openit_moduleactivator

If you want to activate SAR on selected clients, follow the instructions in the Activating Features on Selected Clients section.

# Activating Application Usage Collector

Make sure that SystemAnalyzer is activated.

Application Usage Collector is active by default; make sure it is activated to enable monitoring of processes and their resource consumption. If it is inactive, follow these instructions to activate:

Open a command prompt with Administrator level privileges.
Go to the bin directory, which is by default in C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\bin, run the command:
Command Syntax
```
cd $BIN_DIR
```
Example
```
cd C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\bin
```

Once in the directory, activate the Application usage collector, run the command:

Command Syntax
openit_oconfinit -u "C:/Program Files/OpeniT/Core/Configuration/module-activation/system_analyzer.root.systemanalyzer.appusage.active=true"

Activate the module poller, run the command:

Command Syntax
openit_oconfinit -u "C:/Program Files/OpeniT/Core/Configuration/module-activation/system_analyzer.root.systemanalyzer.appusage.module-poller.active=true"
