    Hello Marek G,

    Here is the link to DSM 2020 administrator guide And in this guide it explains about the different ways to configure DSM with using active directory & using local user account.  It also list out the prerequisites for each way.

    Hello Marek G,

    Have you instated the data collector like it is stated on pages 34 & 35 of the admin guide?  Have you looked at Authenticating Users with an External Directory Service on page 661? Have you also looked at Managing Local Users Through the Data Collector on page 667?

    Hello Marek G,

    Since you created a new admin account you should use the new account.  Which compellent system do you have as you didn’t state that in your post?

    Hello Marek G,

    If you are looking to track performance it works better in 2019 than it does in 2020.  Second, the add Datacollector to AD, I have checked with some of my counterparts and there are some issues with getting it to work consistently.  It is best just use the local admin account.
