Activating StorageAnalyzer and Other Data Collection Sources
The following sections will guide you on the required configuration to activate StorageAnalyzer and other data collection sources.
#
Activating StorageAnalyzer
StorageAnalyzer is inactive by default; you must activate it before activating other data collection sources. 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 Syntaxcd $BIN_DIR
Examplecd C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\bin
Once in the directory, activate the data collection for StorageAnalyzer, run the command:
Command Syntaxopenit_oconfinit -u "C:/Program Files/OpeniT/Core/Configuration/module-activation/storage_analyzer.root.storageanalyzer.active=true"
By default, module activation changes are applied every 6 hours. However, if you want to activate the data collection for StorageAnalyzer immediately, run the appropriate command based on your system setup:
For a coexistent Open iT setup (Core Server and Client on the same machine), run the command:
Command Syntaxopenit_moduleactivator
For a distributed setup (Core Server and Client(s) on separate machines), follow the steps in the Manually Creating and Downloading a Distributable Configuration Files Package section.
Go to the bin directory, which is by default in
/opt/openit/bin
, run the command:Command Syntaxcd $BIN_DIR
Examplecd /opt/openit/bin
Once in the directory, activate the data collection for StorageAnalyzer, run the command:
Command Syntax./openit_oconfinit -u "C:/Program Files/OpeniT/Core/Configuration/module-activation/storage_analyzer.root.storageanalyzer.active=true"
By default, module activation changes are applied every 6 hours. However, if you want to activate the data collection for StorageAnalyzer immediately, run the appropriate command based on your system setup:
For a coexistent Open iT setup (Core Server and Client on the same machine), run the command:
Command Syntax./openit_moduleactivator
For a distributed setup (Core Server and Client(s) on separate machines), follow the steps in the Manually Creating and Downloading a Distributable Configuration Files Package section.
If you want to activate StorageAnalyzer on selected clients, follow the instructions in the Activating Features on Selected Clients section.

Activating File Systems Collector
Make sure that
File Systems Collector is inactive by default; you must activate it to begin monitoring the available and used space on file systems (drives). 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 Syntaxcd $BIN_DIR
Examplecd C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\bin
Once in the directory, activate the File System collectors, run the command:
Command Syntaxopenit_oconfinit -u "C:/Program Files/OpeniT/Core/Configuration/module-activation/storage_analyzer.root.storageanalyzer.filesystems.active=true"
By default, module activation changes are applied every 6 hours. However, if you want to activate the File System collectors immediately, run the appropriate command based on your system setup:
For a coexistent Open iT setup (Core Server and Client on the same machine), run the command:
Command Syntaxopenit_moduleactivator
For a distributed setup (Core Server and Client(s) on separate machines), follow the steps in the Manually Creating and Downloading a Distributable Configuration Files Package section.
Go to the bin directory, which is by default in
/opt/openit/bin
, run the command:Command Syntaxcd $BIN_DIR
Examplecd /opt/openit/bin
Once in the directory, activate the File System collectors, run the command:
Command Syntax./openit_oconfinit -u "C:/Program Files/OpeniT/Core/Configuration/module-activation/storage_analyzer.root.storageanalyzer.filesystems.active=true"
By default, module activation changes are applied every 6 hours. However, if you want to activate the File System collectors immediately, run the appropriate command based on your system setup:

Command Syntax./openit_moduleactivator
For a distributed setup (Core Server and Client(s) on separate machines), follow the steps in the Manually Creating and Downloading a Distributable Configuration Files Package section.
If you want to activate File Systems Collector on selected clients, follow the instructions in the Activating Features on Selected Clients section.

Activating File Space Collector
Make sure that
File Space Collector is inactive by default; you must activate it to begin monitoring the recursive file usage and usage reports grouping. 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 Syntaxcd $BIN_DIR
Examplecd C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\bin
Once in the directory, activate the File Space collectors, run the command:
Command Syntaxopenit_oconfinit -u "C:/Program Files/OpeniT/Core/Configuration/module-activation/storage_analyzer.root.storageanalyzer.filespace.active=true"
Set the activation interval for the file space collectors to weekly, run the command:
Command Syntaxopenit_oconfinit -u "C:/Program Files/OpeniT/Core/Configuration/module-activation/storage_analyzer.root.storageanalyzer.filespace.configure.interval=weekly"
By default, module activation changes are applied every 6 hours. However, if you want to activate the File Space collectors immediately, run the appropriate command based on your system setup:
For a coexistent Open iT setup (Core Server and Client on the same machine), run the command:
Command Syntaxopenit_moduleactivator
For a distributed setup (Core Server and Client(s) on separate machines), follow the steps in the Manually Creating and Downloading a Distributable Configuration Files Package section.

Command Syntax./openit_oconfinit -u "C:/Program Files/OpeniT/Core/Configuration/module-activation/storage_analyzer.root.storageanalyzer.filespace.active=true"
Set the activation interval for the file space collectors to weekly, run the command:
Command Syntax./openit_oconfinit -u "C:/Program Files/OpeniT/Core/Configuration/module-activation/storage_analyzer.root.storageanalyzer.filespace.configure.interval=weekly"
By default, module activation changes are applied every 6 hours. However, if you want to activate the File Space collectors immediately, run the appropriate command based on your system setup:
