    Hi,

    I'm a little bit "lost in space"  😎

    A "collector" object has two Data Collection tabs. On one I can create normal DCIs. The second one looks like I can link DCIs from other objects to the collector. I looked around in the Mangement client but did not find any way to get a DCI in there.

    The documentation at https://netxms.org/documentation/adminguide doesn't list the collector object at all...

    What's the correct way to link DCIs to this object? Or am I on the completely wrong way?

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    best...

      If you check a container, there'll be Data Collection tab there which allows to search DCIs on child nodes.
      Now, collector is basically a container, but with data collection. So one "Data collection" is for DCI search and the other for data collection like it is on a node. As for the naming, it could probably be a bit less confusing 🙂

      Data collection is basically limited to script or web services, or to other sources if you do Source node override in DCI properties.
