Does anyone know of a way to tell Prime Infrastructure how often to poll devices

[Rob Johnson]

Can PI be configured to poll devices every 5, 10, 15 minutes via a global setting?

All I can find are retry, timeout and backoff algorithm settings.

Let me know.

thanks, rob

try This

Step 1 Select Monitor > Performance Settings > Setup > Automonitor from the menu.

The Auto Monitoring details window appears.

Step 2 Select one of the following values available in the Polling Interval drop-down list to modify the polling interval:

•1 Minute

•5 Minutes

•15 Minutes

•30 Minutes

To exclude the group from auto-monitoring, select Don't Monitor from the drop-down list.

Step 3 Click Apply

Hafed,

this is how to do it in LMS.

I'm trying to figure out how to do it in Prime Infrastructure...

You can navigate to Design > Monitoring Configuration > Features >  Metrics > Interface Health (shown below). Follow the same methodology to  change the polling interval as mentioned for Device Health. You can see how  interface availability is changed to every minute.

Hafed found this::

Interface polling can be very quickly enabled by using a predefined monitoring  template. You can navigate to Design > Monitoring Configuration > Features  > Metrics > Interface Health (shown below). Follow the same methodology to  change the polling interval as mentioned for Device Health. You can see how  interface availability is changed to every minute. 11:56 AM
