    1. From my understanding OpsCenter will not collect data from the past. It will only gather data that is currently in NetBackup and any data moving forward. It will store up to 60 days. OpsCenter Analytics can store indefinitely. Here is an article on retention.

    2. Ops Center collects data for Backup Exec, PureDisk, Enterprise Vault, TSM, and Legato Networker.

     

    3. I have been running OpsCenter Analytics for a few months now and have not noticed any significant performance impact, but exact numbers I am not aware of.

     

    4. As far as common issues there are many posts in the forums about issues. I think it would be best for you to just browse the forums and look at the ones you see often.

     

    I would encourage you to read over the guide for any other questions you may have.

Thanks for you references.. from where I could find out most of th stuff, but if you have reference to configure  OpsCenter on Windows server, Agent on the same server but the Master server will be Unix to configure the collector on it, would be appreciated.
