  2. To fetch the IP address and Port numbers for DCF and Kafka, refer Identify Data Collection.

Procedure

  1. At BASEDIR/smarts/bin , type the following command:

    sm_edit ../conf/clientConnect.conf

  2. Enter the following line for each orchestrator instance: 
    orchestrator:<orchestrator_IP_Address>:<orchestrator_Username>:<orchestrator_Password>:<Protocol>:<orchestrator_Port>:<data_center_name>

    You must add the line for the orchestrator instance above: 

    "::admin:<E-1.0>94689C5A7C826FD58DDE9F62284A68191EC739743EA25E5E1F76FE49 3337D558"
