Modifying Collector Settings for Newly Discovered Elements
The management server is capable of collecting many different types of data. Instead of using a
single large process, these data are gathered using many different collectors. You can decide
whether all or some of these collector schedules should start or stop when a new element is
discovered.
To review the list of collectors that are available for each element type, select Tools > Storage
Essentials > Home, access the Discovery page by selecting Configuration > Discovery, and click the
Collector Settings tab.
The Default Collector Settings page provides a comprehensive listing of what collectors are
available for each element type and what category each collector is classified as.
To help you find your collectors quickly, this page offers a set of filters. The filter area is collapsed by
default. To expand the filter area, click the + symbol. The following filters are supported:
• Element Type – Retrieves the list of collectors designed to support the specified element types.
• Collector Category – Specifies whether you want to see a listing of all the collectors, or only
collectors designed to gather performance statistics, report data, or capacity data.
