Configuring basic CCS Manager settings

You can change the basic CCS Manager settings to assign roles and configure the data collectors.

When you configure the CCS Manager settings, the panels that appear vary depending on the components that are deployed on the host system. In addition, the CCS Manager settings determine what information appears. For example, options to enable data sources only appear if the CCS Manager is assigned to the CCS Manager Collector role.

If you modify more than one CCS Manager at a time, only the common setting tabs and fields appear. Select each CCS Manager individually to view all settings that apply to the CCS Manager.

Note:

If you make a change to the basic CCS Manager settings, the changes do not appear immediately. You must close and reopen the Edit Settings dialog box before the new options appear.

Perform the following procedure before configuring the basic CCS Manager settings:

Install the CCS Manager. You can install the CCS Manager along with the CCS Application Server on a single computer, See Installing the CCS Suite.

You can install a standalone CCS Manager. See Installing a standalone CCS Manager for a scale out deployment of CCS.
