Hi Contracer--

What version of NPM are you running? It looks like 9.5.

If so, this should help you:

Go to Admin>Details>Polling Engines.
Copy the name of polling engine_2.
Paste it into the first portion of the URL on the web console.
Make the same changes to the Polling Intervals screen that you made for polling engine_1.

Hi MarieB,

Thank you for your help, but when I substitute

polling_engine_2 name´s in the URL I get this:

Hi Contracer,

These settings are saved to the Settings table in the database that is polled by all engines in your system.

When you click the "Re-Apply" button, we do not differentiate this update based on EngineID. The SQL for this command is something like:

UPDATE Nodes SET PollInterval = 180

This should be setting all your nodes regardless of which engine they are on. What are you seeing that makes you think otherwise?

Thanks

I had something like this happen to me on a new environment I am working in. It consists of one SLX server and two pollers. I adjusted the polling intervals and they would only "stick" to one poller, the other two would revert to the default.

I opened up Case # 160118.

What we found out is that empty pollers ( no nodes/elements ) will not update its interval settings. I ended up moving one node to each of the empty pollers and they work fine now.

Hope this helps.
