Creating Collections
Collections group together data from different Data Sources that have the same Source Type. For example, you might want to assign all the Data Sources for a WAS cluster into a single Collection so that you can search them as a group.
Before you begin
Before you create a Source Type,
you must complete the following prerequisite tasks:
- You must create an Insight Pack Eclipse project.
- You must also define the Source Type for the Collection that you are creating.
About this task
Note: If you manually edit the metadata\collections.json for
a project that you have opened in the Log Analysis Insight Pack Tooling,
any changes you make are not displayed and are overwritten by changes
made within the Tooling.
