Installing the WMI Proxy service (Windows host resources only)
To collect data from Windows hosts, choose a Windows host on which to install the WMI proxy.
This is required only if you are collecting data from Windows Host Resources.
The WMI Proxy needs to be installed on only one Windows host.
If the Data Collector is on a Windows server, the WMI Proxy will be installed there as part of the storage array Data Collector installation.
If the Data Collector is on a Linux server, you must identify a Windows server on which to install the WMI proxy service.
Locate the executable on the Portal and copy it to the Data Collector server.
On Windows:
c:\opt\aptare\utils\aptarewmiproxyserver.exe
On Linux:
/opt/aptare/utils/aptarewmiproxyserver.exe
