5.2.4 Planning polling intervals
You select for each object group a polling interval that NNMi uses to collect data. The interval can be as short as one minute or as long as days, as best matches your service level agreements.
- Tip
-
Shorter intervals enable you to become aware of network problems earlier; however, polling too many objects in too short an interval can cause a backlog in the State Poller. Find the best balance between resource use and intervals for your environment.
- Reference note
-
The Causal Engine performs a status poll of each node every 24 hours and updates status, conclusion, and incident information as needed. This status poll does not affect the timing of the polling interval configured for the device.
