A few general prerequisites that need to be met before enabling and using Vertica are as follows:
Zone Infrastructure Rights: The Modify Zone Infrastructure rights should be configured for your administrator. For more information on enabling these rights, see ZENworks Administrator Accounts and Rights Reference.
TCP and UDP Ports: Ensure that the default ports required to communicate with the Kafka, ZooKeeper and Vertica services are open at all times. For more information on these default ports, see ZENworks TCP and UDP Ports.
