Infocollect isn't installed by default but is located on the harddrive of the CS.
Use the command wheris sfx-infocollect.sh
You should find it in your system.
You have to install it with the su account.

su is no account. It's a command to switch to another user. (switch user or super user)

Without option you will be root.
su mtcl :arrow: You are mtcl
su - mtcl :arrow: You are mtcl and your profile will be loaded

su swinst :arrow: You are swinst
su - swinst :arrow: You are swinst and your profile will be loaded

su :arrow: You are root
su - :arrow: You are root and your profile will be loaded
or
su root :arrow: You are root
su - root :arrow: You are root and your profile will be loaded

and so on :wink:
