When do I configure Analytics?

Overview

In order to enable the creation of Analytics reports and dashboards, an operator must:

  • enable or disable the required types of data collection

  • specify the statistics classes for data collection and aggregation

  • specify how long to retain the data

The following can also be configured by an administrator:

Note: E-mail server settings and event logging must be configured again after an upgrade, or after the analytics-server-0 pod has been terminated.

Changing NSP email or Analytics logging settings automatically restarts the Analytics server, causing it to be unavailable for a few minutes after the change.
