Cluster Monitor polling rate
Polling rates
NOTE: You can specify only one polling rate (interval) for all nodes in all clusters . You cannot specify
different rates for different nodes, so the polling fields display on the configuration page only when you
select All in both the Cluster and Node dropdown lists.
CPU polling rate
The CPU polling rate determines how often Cluster Monitor checks CPU utilization as reported by the
appropriate HP Insight Management Agent on monitored nodes.
Adjust the CPU polling rate by configuring the Cluster Monitor node resource settings. See “Configuring
node resource settings” for more information on configuring the node resource settings.
Disk polling rate
The Disk polling rate determines how often Cluster Monitor checks the free disk space as reported by the
appropriate HP Insight Management Agent on monitored nodes.
Adjust the polling rate by configuring the Cluster Monitor node resource settings. See “Configuring node
resource settings” for more information on configuring the node resource settings.
MSCS status polling rate
The polling rate you enter determines how often Cluster Monitor checks the MSCS status of monitored clusters.
Adjust the status polling rate be configuring the Cluster Monitor's cluster resource settings. See “Configuring
cluster resource settings” for more information on configuring the cluster resource settings.
System status polling rate
The system polling rate determines how often Cluster Monitor checks node status as reported by the
appropriate HP Insight Management Agent running on the nodes.
System is a node-level attribute. So, you can adjust the polling rate by configuring Cluster Monitor node
resource settings. The polling rate is a global attribute of the resource, so you can specify only one polling
interval for all nodes in all clusters. The polling fields display on the configuration page only when you select
All in both the Cluster and Node dropdown lists.
