Avoiding Redundant Data Collection

All data collection is performed on a device group-by-device group basis. Therefore, devices that appear

in multiple device groups could have data collected from them at multiple times, depending on the Data

Collection settings for each device group to which they belong. For example, if you create a device group

that includes all rack model devices in your network, and you configure Data Collection settings for both

your rack model device group and for your default All Devices device group, data will be gathered from

all of your rack model devices twice, periodically. While this does not increase the size of your

InfraStruXure Central database, it will increase network traffic.

When you select the Data Collection pane a table is displayed that contains all currently defined data

collection settings. The table contains the following information about each device group for which you

have defined data collection settings:

To edit previously defined data collection settings, or to configure new data collection settings for your

device groups:

1. Click Create (or, select a previously defined data collection setting from the Data Collection table

and then click Edit).

2. The Create Collection window opens (or, if you are editing a previously defined data collection

Field Description

Device Group The name of the device group to which these data collection

settings apply.

Interval (HH:MM) The amount of time, in hours:minutes, that must pass after a data

collection process has completed before InfraStruXure Central

will initiate another data collection process.

Enabled The current state of data collection for this device group. If data

collection is not enabled, the data collection settings are saved

but no data is collected from the device group.

Note

If you have not defined any data collection settings for any of your device groups then no

table will be displayed.
