Setting the start date for data collection

On the Data Collection page, you set the date that you want data collection to start. By default, the initial data collection is set to start 30 days back for on-premise data sources and one day for Office 365 (Exchange Online) data sources.

For on-premise data sources, if you have stored data that goes more than 30 days back, you might want to change the start date for data collection. For example, typically Exchange tracking logs are retained for 30 days. If you normally archive your Exchange tracking logs and have logs that go back beyond 30 days, you could set the data collection start date to reflect the actual dates for the data that you have stored.

To set the data collection start date
1
Click Data Collection.
2
Enter the start date for which data is to be collected in the Data Collection Start Date field.

You can only change the start date if you have not added any data sources yet.

Adding and configuring data sources

You can configure the data sources to create the data collections that collect information from different environments. The workflow to add data sources and set up data collection is similar for each target environment.

To set up data collection for your environments
1
Click the gear icon on the home page side bar.
2
Click Data Collection.
3
Click + beside the name of the target environment.
4
Select the data sources for Active Directory (Domain Controller), Exchange, Skype for Business/Lync, Cisco, and Office 365 from which you want to collect data.
Tiles for each data source are displayed.
5
Click the data source tile to enter the configuration information for the data collection.
6
For specific instructions about how to create data sources for each supported platform, see the following sections:
•
Adding data sources for Active Directory or Azure Active Directory
•
Adding data sources, chargeback costs, and thresholds for Exchange and Exchange Online
•
Adding data sources, chargeback costs, and thresholds for Skype for Business/Lync
•
Adding data sources, chargeback, and thresholds for Cisco
Adding more than one instance of the same data source

You must add data sources for each target environment that you have created. So if you have two Active Directory forests added as target environments, you would add the same data sources for each target environment.

For performance reasons, you can add multiple data sources of the same type to distribute the collection load or for different platform versions. For example, you would add an Exchange configuration data source for your Exchange 2010 servers and an Exchange configuration data source for your Exchange 2013/2016/2019 servers.

You can use the rename option to rename each data source so that it reflects the information that is being collected. For information about renaming data sources, see Renaming a data source .

After a data collection is created and is running on a regular basis, you can modify the collection. For example, you could select additional types of data to be collected.

Specifying explicit domain controllers for LDAP connections

For data sources that require an LDAP connection, auto-discovery is used by default to determine the domain controller that is used. However, for a large environment, you might want to explicitly specify a pool of domain controllers to be used rather than using auto-discovery.

For example, in a large environment you might configure six or more Exchange Configuration data sources, several Tracking Logs data sources, and several IIS Logs data sources. If all the data sources use auto-discovery for the LDAP connection, the data sources would tend to use the same domain controller. To avoid this situation, you can specify a pool of domain controllers to be used for certain collections to spread the gathering load.

If you decide to specify a pool of domain controllers, UC Analytics will resolve the LDAP connection to the first available domain controller. If several different data collections use the same pool with the same sequence of domain controllers, the data source collections may all resolve to the same domain controller. For this reason, you should vary the first domain controller that is specified when you specify a pool of domain controllers for a collection.

The following data sources require LDAP connections:

•
Domain Controller
•
Exchange Configuration
•
Exchange Mailbox Contents
•
Exchange IIS Logs
•
Exchange Tracking Logs
•
Exchange Mailbox Content Summary
•
Exchange Calendar
•
Exchange Online Hybrid User Configuration
•
Exchange Online Hybrid Mailbox Configuration
•
Skype for Business/Lync Configuration
•
Cisco Configuration
To explicitly specify domain controllers for LDAP connections
1
On the data source configuration page, select Show advance settings in the LDAP Connection Parameters section.
2
Under Global Catalog Domain Controller, select Use specific domain controller and click Add domain controller.
3
Enter the host name or FQDN for the domain controller and click Add.
4
Repeat step 3. for each domain controller you want to add.
- OR -
5
Enter the FQDN or host names for all the domain controllers you want, with each entry separated by a semi-colon (;), and click Add.

Entering multiple values in a field

When you are specifying LDAP connection parameters or entering targets for some data sources, you can enter several values in a field, separated by a semi-colon (;).

For example, when specifying targets on some data sources (such as server names, OUs, and mailboxes) you can enter multiple targets. So if you are entering target mailboxes in the Add Mailbox field, you would enter the mailbox email address (or common name) with each mailbox entry separated by a semi-colon (;).

When specifying targets

Multiple value entry is supported when specifying targets in the following data sources:

•
Domain Controller
•
Exchange Configuration
•
Exchange Online Native/Hybrid Mailbox Configuration
•
Exchange (Exchange Online) Mailbox Contents
•
Exchange (Exchange Online) Mailbox Content Summary
•
Exchange (Exchange Online) Calendar
•
Exchange Tracking Logs
•
Exchange IIS Logs
•
Exchange (Exchange Online) Public Folders
•
Skype for Business/Lync Configuration
When specifying LDAP connection parameters

Multiple values entry is also supported when entering LDAP connection parameters, such as domain controllers, in the following data sources:

•
Domain Controller
•
Exchange Configuration
•
Exchange Online Hybrid User Configuration
•
Exchange Online Hybrid Mailbox Configuration
•
Exchange Mailbox Contents
•
Exchange Mailbox Content Summary
•
Exchange Calendar
•
Exchange Tracking Logs
•
Exchange IIS Logs
•
Skype for Business/Lync Configuration
•
Cisco Configuration

Please note that the Exchange Public Folders data source does not leverage LDAP connections.

When specifying URLs and servers

You can also enter multiple values when specifying the following information in these data sources:

•
Exchange Web Service URLs in Exchange Mailbox Contents
•
Exchange Web Service URLs in Exchange Mailbox Content Summary
•
Exchange Web Service URLs in Exchange Calendar
•
Skype for Business/Lync CDR Database Server Names in Skype for Business/Lync CDR Database
•
Skype for Business/Lync QoE Database Server Names in Skype for Business/Lync QoE Database
•
CDR Directories in Cisco CDR Logs

Recommendations for collecting from Office 365

Many of the data sources that collect from Office 365, including Exchange Online (hybrid or native), use remote PowerShell to collect the data from Office 365. You must specify the account is used to connect to Exchange Online when you configure the data source.

It is recommended that you specify a different account for the PowerShell credentials that are used for each Exchange Online or Office 365 data source that you configure.
