The Collector data folder holds managed machine data until that data is written to the VCM database. The
folder content is dynamic and changes as collections occur, and it can be placed on slower performing
storage.
The database, Web console, and Tomcat folders hold binaries that support those respective functions and
are installed into separate folders if you want better fault isolation and troubleshooting capability.
