This warning just let you know that a collection failed. When it takes more than 5 min for a collection to get data, the Diagnostic Server deliberately fails it in order to avoid performance problems; it is a part of the product design.

Usually such problems occur when monitored servers are heavily loaded. If this warning is rarely reported , you can just ignored it.
