Adding Virtual Log Collector to multiple NW Servers

We are trying to add a Virtual Log Collector (which is already added and installed with one NW) to a second NW Server. Both the NW servers are running as Independent Primary Servers
 

The purpose of this is to avoid loss of logs and have redundancy. But unable to find any solution for the same.

Hi! 

You can configure multiple Destination Groups to replicate events data. Check this doc https://community.rsa.com/t5/rsa-netwitness-platform-online/log-collection-configure-replication/ta-p/568055

Thanks for the reply RafaelSampaio. However, will the procedure be able to
identify the 2nd NW Server, which is running as an independent separate
setup. How does the VLC identify that.

Why would you like to use two independent instances of the admin? Is this a business requirement?
In the NetWitness architecture, you can avoid log loss and have redundancy by using Log Collectors and Decoders. You can have data replication and/or failover in the same instance of the admin server with a secondary admin.
