Allow Setting of UnDP Polling Frequency

Some device pollers simply do not make sense to be polled at the Node or Interface polling frequency. Allowing us to configure the polling frequency similar to the way it's done in APM would make more sense. For exmaple if you create a poll to get the serial number of a server it is simply a waste of resources to poll for this every 10 minutes or whatever the Node Stat polling rate may be for that device.

Other UnDP users, please let us know how useful it will be for you.

thanks,

i will definately sign on for this one. he is stating the exact one that I have the most issue with polling serial numbers. I just dont see why it should be eating polling cycles every minute when the once a hour or once every 4 hours will probably be enough

Makes a lot of sense. I'd use it to keep my single poller happy. Once a month or less would be more than adequate for static data.

the thing i would really love to see is a way to take the value from the UnDP on chassisID and fill the Serial Number field in the nodes table with it. That would be useful, but I found no way to have the UnDP interact with any other table so far.
