Collecting Data

By default, Veeam Availability Console management agents send data to Veeam Availability Console every hour, or when specific events, such as backup job failure, occur. If required, you can initiate unscheduled data collection from machines that run management agents. These can be machines hosting Veeam backup agents, Veeam Backup & Replication and Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager.
