Adding filers
You must add filers that you want Veritas Data Insight to monitor.
To add filers
- In the Console, click Settings > Filers.
The Filers page displays the list of available filers.
- On the Filers page, click the Add New Filer drop-down, and select the type of filer you want to add.
- On the New Filer screen, enter the filer properties, and click Add New Filer.
If you are adding a Windows File Server, Data Insight can automatically install an agent on the filer. This agent enables Data Insight to receive event notifications from the filer.
For detailed information about installing the agent manually, see the Veritas Data Insight Installation Guide.
You can also add multiple filers at once to the Data Insight configuration.
To add filers in bulk
- In the Console, click Settings > Filers.
- On the Filers page, click the Add Filers in Bulk drop-down, and select the type of filer you want to add.
- On the Bulk Add <Name of filer> pop-up, browse to the location of the CSV file that contains the configuration details for each filer.
Note:
If you are configuring multiple filers for the first time, download a sample of the CSV file; create a CSV file with the details corresponding to the type of filer you want to configure.
- Click Upload.
Note:
Data Insight disables addition of filers if you do not have a valid license or if your license has expired. See Overview of Data Insight licensing.
