• Update the collected data from some systems (see “Updating collected data on selected
systems” (page 62) ).
• Update the collected data presented in a Profile Viewer report (see “Updating data displayed
in a profile viewer” (page 62) ).
Updating collected data on all systems
You may want to update data for all systems at one time.
Prerequisites To update collected data on all systems:
• You must be logged in to Insight Dynamics (see Accessing Capacity Advisor ).
Procedure 5-6 To update collected data on all systems
1. Select Optimize
→Capacity Advisor→Collect Capacity Advisor Data ALL... from the top
menu bar.
This starts the wizard for collecting data from all systems licensed for Capacity Advisor.
2. Click Run Now.
See “Interpreting task results” (page 59) for more information about the Task Results
screen.
Updating collected data on selected systems
At times, you might want to collect data on selected systems. In this case, follow the same
procedure as for
“Scheduling a data collection” (page 60) , steps 1–9.
Updating data displayed in a profile viewer
To update the data in a profile viewer:
• You must be in a profile viewer (see “Using the Profile Viewer” (page 67) ).
Procedure 5-7 To update data that a profile viewer is displaying
• Click the Collect Capacity Advisor Data... link.
A busy indicator appears over the grayed out screen. When the busy indicator disappears,
you can see the refreshed data display.
NOTE: If the data collection fails, the output from stdout and stderr of the command
are shown at the top of the screen.
Collecting data without using an agent
Agentless data collection is currently available for systems that run supported versions of
Microsoft Windows and Linux operating systems and that are licensed for Capacity Advisor.
These managed systems will be automatically configured for agentless data collection, either
using the Insight managed system setup wizard or the first time capcollect is run for those
systems (whichever comes first).
Listing systems currently in the configuration file
This section describes the procedure for determining the current settings for agentless data
configuration on a CMS, particularly the list of systems from which to collect data using this
method.
