On-premises ETLs


BMC Helix Capacity Optimization provides on-premises ETLs to collect data from your on-premises environment, such as VMware and OpenStack.

These ETLs use the Remote ETL Engine that is installed in your on-premises environment.

If you do not have a Remote ETL Engine installed, see Installing-remote-components-to-collect-on-premises-data.

For information about configuring and running these ETLs for data collection, see the following topics:
