    始める前に

    注:
    You can configure Agent Client Collector Log Analytics using guided setup. The guided setup ensures that you have the minimum required setup for using the application. For more information, see Set up Agent Client Collector Log Analytics using guided setup.
    • The Agent Client Collector Log Analytics (ACC-L) plugin must be installed. The plugin comes with the Agent Client Collector Framework (ACC-F) and Agent Client Collector Monitoring (ACC-M) plugins. For more information, see Agent Client Collector installation.
    • ServiceNow Service Operations Workspace ITOM Apps must be installed. If it is not installed already, install it manually. For more information, see Install Service Operations Workspace for ITOM application.
    • Agent Client Collector Log Analytics has a dependency on the Health Log Analytics application, Version 22.0.12 - December 2021 and later, available from the ServiceNow Store. Streaming log data from Windows hosts is supported in Agent Client Collector Log Analytics Version 3.1.0 and later.
      重要:
      Health Log Analytics does not support IPv6. To work with the application, configure the MID Server to IPv4.
    • The Agent Client Collector comes with the default servicenow user. Ensure that this user has read access to enable Agent Client Collector to view all the configured log paths. For example, the Agent Client Collector servicenow user that comes installed with the base system does not have permissions to view the paths to /var/log/ in Linux and C:\Windows\System32 in Windows. For information about configuring permissions for the servicenow user, see the ACC-L Permission Denied issues [KB1117271] article in the Now Support Knowledge Base.
    注:
    Currently, this setup only supports basic authentication with the MID Server. mTLS is not supported.

    手順

    1. Navigate to All > Agent Client Collector > Deployment > MID Servers.
    2. On the MID Server page, select a MID Server that is validated and has a Status value of Up.
    3. On the MID Server page for the selected server, select Setup ACC Log Analytics in the related links section.
      Agent Client Collector Log Analytics setup starts.

      In addition, the system automatically creates an ACC data input. When it has been created, the data input record is added to the ACC data inputs table and the data input is ready to stream logs.

      注:
      It is important to configure an ACC data input for every MID Server to which Agent Client Collectors can connect. For more information, see Set up additional ACC data inputs.

      The system also prompts you to set up the MID Web Server. For more information, see MID Web Server.

    4. In the ACC Log Analytics Setup dialog box, configure the ports.
      1. In the MID Web Server Port and ACC data input Port fields, enter the appropriate port numbers.
      2. Select OK.
        The URL with the configured endpoint appears in the dialog box.
      3. Copy and save the endpoint URL for use when installing the ACC agent on the endpoint machine.
    5. Navigate to All > Agent Client Collector > MID Web Server API Key and copy and save the MID Web Server API key for use when installing the ACC agent on the endpoint machine.
    6. Install the ACC agent on the endpoint machine.
      注:
      If you have already installed the ACC agent, proceed to Agent Client Collector log policies.
      1. Navigate to All > Agent Client Collector > Deployment > Agent Downloads.
      2. Download the ACC agent for the appropriate operating system.
        For detailed instructions, select the documentation link for the operating system. For example:
