Chapter 4. Usage data collection
Red Hat OpenShift Data Science administrators can choose whether to allow Red Hat to collect data about OpenShift Data Science usage in their cluster. Collecting this data allows Red Hat to monitor and improve our software and support. For further details about the data Red Hat collects, see Usage data collection notice for OpenShift Data Science.
Usage data collection is enabled by default when you install OpenShift Data Science on your OpenShift Container Platform cluster except when clusters are installed in a disconnected environment.
See Disabling usage data collection for instructions on disabling the collection of this data in your cluster. If you have disabled data collection on your cluster, and you want to enable it again, see Enabling usage data collection for more information.
