Polling individual data source every 10 minutes

Post by marrold »

Hi, please forgive me if this is a stupid question but is it possible to poll an individual data source every 10 minutes? I.E poll the source every other polling run.

I have searched but with no luck.

Thanks

yes that's possible. That's what you configure using the "Step" and "Heartbeat" settings in the "Data Templates" section.

So you will need to create new data templates or copy existing once and change them accordingly. Create new graph templates that use these. You then may also want to create new RRAs to fit a 10 minute poll ( otherwise aggregated values will be wrong ... )
