Reducing CPU, Memory Polling intervals??

Hello,

I am looking for information on changing statistics polling interval from 10 to 5 minutes for all servers. Are there any impact on the polling engine load?

Can we change only cpu and memory polling intervals?

Regards,

Sangeetha

When you edit a node, you would want to edit the statistics collection intervals (measured in minutes). This is how often cpu/memory metrics are polled for that node. You can also go to settings -> all settings -> polling settings, and change the settings globally.

Yes this does have an impact on your polling engine load. Essentially you would be doubling the load for those metrics. Really depends on the resources available to the polling engine, its current load already and how many nodes you plan on making this change to.

Interesting discussion ,,'keeping in mind of component based - APE utilization'' , Does CPU & memory statistics together considered as 1 element or 2 element with default 10 minutes polling interval.
