Configuring IBM Data Cataloging

This section provides information on how to deploy and configure IBM Data Cataloging capabilities.

Setting up IBM Data Cataloging custom user and password
Use this information to create a custom user and password for the IBM Data Cataloging service.
Configure data source connections
Data source connections describe the source data systems for which IBM Data Cataloging indexes metadata.
Editing and using the TimeSinceAccess and Size Range buckets
Users can group or aggregate data into three user-defined bucket ranges. The three user-defined bucket ranges are TimeSinceAccess, Size Range and FileGroup.
IBM Spectrum Storage software requirements
Use IBM Data Cataloging to index metadata from other applications and to orchestrate the data management.
IBM Data Cataloging installation with alternative VLAN
Install and configure IBM Data Cataloging that uses additional VLAN connected through the IBM Fusion upstream links.
Multiple connection managers
Multiple connection managers are a new capability that is designed to enhance scanning performance and enable parallel ingestion. It proves especially valuable in scenarios where data sources are geographically dispersed and need to be scanned as remote sources.
Enabling feature for skipping the snapshot directories
Enabling skipping feature allows you to skip the metadata ingestion to the snapshot directories.
