Thank Nick for your fast response. 

So if the OpsCenter is down, then the stats for the cluster won't be collected. 
Is there any safe-guard mechanism, like a duplicate OpsCenter on second machine 
to monitor the cluster in case of single OpsCenter failure?

The OpsCenter agents report metric data to the main OpsCenter process
which processes it and writes data into the cluster. So yes, the main
OpsCenter process needs to be running in order for metrics to be
stored in the cluster.
