Auto-Discovery with Multiple Pollers

Hey guys I am in the process of setting up my discovery profiles and I have a quick question about scheduling. I am trying to evenly schedule them so I don't kill the servers. I have three pollers (one per region) so my question is does the discovery run on the poller specified in the profile. I know they all access the same DB (which is a separate server), but can I essentially run three discovery profiles at the same time if they are each assigned to a different poller? I hope this make sense. LOL

Thanks,

Mike

That's how I've been running and have not noticed any issues with NPM 10.1. We just migrated to 10.2 last week and haven't noticed any impact yet.

Yes, they are polled by the poller you selected in the discovery profile so they would not all be running on the main server at one time. As long as its not too much for your database server, I don't see how you will have any issues.

Hope this helps.
