• 64-bit OS. See the Hitachi Storage Viewer Certified Configurations Guide for supported operating systems.

• Support Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 1.7.

• For performance reasons, HDS recommends that you do not install Data Collectors on the same server as the Hitachi Storage Viewer Portal. However, if you must have both on the same server, verify that the Portal and Data Collector software do not reside in the same directory.

• Install only one Data Collector on a server (or OS instance).
