EOC Orion Polling Interval

JosephRLee

We currently have EOC page to refresh at three minutes with the default polling interval of five minutes to the Orion servers. Is there going to be an issue setting the Orion polling interval to say two or maybe three minutes ?

This is what our EOC is watching ( note : traps and NTA are enabled )

It will generate twice as much traffic because you are polling twice as much and may cause more timeouts while the database updates after each poll. I would suggest trying it and keeping an eye on the system.
