About Collector node

The Collector node scans data source and collects access events from the data sources SharePoint, OneDrive or generic devices. Data Insight uses this information to perform advanced reporting on the business owners of data and the access history of the data. By scanning for file metadata and security descriptors, it reports on the loopholes of permissions on files and folders. The details that are captured by the collector node also help you find stale and orphan files in the scanned data repositories.

The Collector node enables you to collect and parse access events from various storage repositories. The Collector examines the access events available on these storage systems to parse the events that report the read, write, create, delete, and rename activity on files or folders. The access events are processed in batches that consist of several thousand events. Each batch of events that are collected in a cycle is stored in a separate file with appropriate timestamp that indicates the ending time of the last entry in that batch. This data is pruned based on exclude rules or events that are not from the configured shares, site collections or equivalent data sources, and is then segregated on a per-share basis.
