The deployment of a site collector happens in two parts:
First you will download the image and deploy it in your environment.
After you have completed the deployment, the collector will require an activation key.
The steps are shown in this section and the next section.
Log in to your Epiphany account if you're not already logged in.
In the left menu, expand Source Management and select Configuration.
Expand Site Collectors.
Select NEW COLLECTOR.
Enter information about the new collector:
Name: the name of the collector. You can name it anything you like.
Site: the location or address of where the data source is located.
Notes: any additional information.
Select Save.
The steps above provision a new site collector in the Site Collectors pane.
Select the Actions button for the site collector you just created.
From the Actions drop-down, select Download Image.
The site collector image is approximately 2.6 GB. You should expect about a 20-minute download time over average business class connections. You will need to uncompress the site collector.
From the Actions drop-down, select Get Activation Key.
The activation keys are one time use. If you close the Activation Key window, you will need to generate a new key.
The Activation Key will be generated and displayed for your site collector. Copy the key for your records. Do not close the window.
If you did close the window, repeat Step 4 to generate a new key. Once you create a new activation key the previous one is void.
Upon booting the Site Collector Image for the first time, an interactive login prompt displays.
Enter the default login credentials for a fresh image:
LOGIN: config
PASSWORD: epiphany
Upon entering these credentials you will be prompted to update the login credentials. Epiphany does not have access to your updated password.
The next step is to activate the site collector using the activation key obtained in step 4 above.
Enter the key in Epiphany, exactly as shown..
Press Enter when complete.
Once the activation key is entered, Epiphany will attempt to associate the site collector image to the Epiphany processing pipeline. If this is successful, you should see Ready on the main status screen for both the Network and Collector.
Exit the Collector Setup Menu and return to your Epiphany console.
You have now completed the steps for downloading and setting up the Epiphany Site Collector. In your Epiphany console you should see ACTIVE in green in the lower-right corner of the Site Collector, the Status should be ENABLED, and the LAST CHECKIN time should be recent.
