Storage Manager Data Collector
I seem to have forgotten what this is used for and is it needed for Storage Manager Client?

It should be fine to uninstall it, but in my opinion if you are decommissioning it shortly there isn't really a reason to mess with it prior to doing so.

The data collector, formaly knows as Enterprise Manager is needed/good for when
You can connect to it with the Storage Manager Client or when connecting to Unisphere with the help of your favorite Browser.

Well I only have one SC, and it should be decommissioned later this summer. So probably safe to uninstall?
