Distributed Data Collector (recommended for NetBackup)
If collecting data from NetBackup, you can use a Distributed Data Collector, which is installed by default on a non-clustered NetBackup Primary Server. A Distributed Data Collector should ONLY be used to collect data from the NetBackup Primary Server and/or the appliance/Flex instance it resides on.
The below figure shows multiple NetBackup Primaries with a Distributed Data Collector installed on each NetBackup Primary, across two Data Centers. The Data Collectors point back to a NetBackup IT Analytics Portal server, installed in a third Data Center.
