History:
There are numerous terms floating around
in the UI, docs, & service names
that are being used to describe the
data collection engine that is a part of Hyades.
Some of these terms include:
Agent Controller
RAC
Hyades Data Collection Engine
Hyades Collection Engine
Hyades Data Collector
A number of defects have been opened
to track this problem in the UI & the docs:
70551, 71463, 71592
The inconsistent terminology also causes
problems downstream for any products
that want to build on top of Hyades.
After much consultation with the usability
team, editors, & development,
the following solution was proposed:
A generic term will be used throughout
the UI & docs.
Term to be used in the UI & in the
docs: Data collection engine The windows service name: Data
Collection Engine Name to appear on product installations:
Install the data
collection engine. (sentence-style)
We are going forward with these fixes
for Hyades 3.1 i2.
Please let me know if you have any issues
with this change.
Thanx.
