# Step 8. Review Veeam Collectors Tab


On the **Veeam Collectors** tab, expand the **Veeam Collectors** tree to view information on existing monitoring groups, connected Collector servers and available monitoring jobs. Each resource is represented with a set of properties, such as:

- **Status** — the overall health status of the monitoring group (that is, the most critical status among all collectors). For each collector in the group, the column also displays its individual health status. <br>

- **Monitoring Load** — the load on the monitoring group or Collector (in percentage).

- **Collection Interval** — the time interval between data collection sessions in the monitoring group.

In this example, with 2 Collectors available in the *Production* monitoring group, the Virtualization Extensions Service has automatically load-balanced the jobs across the *VEEAMCOL1* and *VEEAMCOL2* Collectors. Because the third *VEEAMCOL3* Collector is in a separate monitoring group, (*Development*) it did not participate in the load-balancing and is still *Inactive*, with no jobs.

If you select the *Production* monitoring group, MP will show the status and object counts for this group.
