Use this window to configure advanced settings for the Management Center data collector. You can access the window from the OneView Collector view in the Console options.
Click areas in the window for more information.
- Host Name Resolution
- Select this option to resolve host names to IP addresses and IP addresses to host names, if possible. This option allows you to disable host name resolution for this feature only. (Host name resolution is enabled globally using the Suite Name Resolution option.)
Specify the following three options for your wireless controllers, devices, and interfaces that have collection enabled (called collection targets).
- Discover Engine Interval
- This interval specifies the frequency that the data collector will
perform discover operations on the collection targets. Discover operations are
performed in blocks specified by the Max
Outstanding SNMP per Collector value, with a new block scheduled according to the interval specified
here. Valid values are 1-300 seconds.
- Poll Engine Interval
- This interval specifies the frequency that the data collector will poll the collection targets. Polling is performed in blocks specified by the Max Outstanding SNMP per Collector value, with a new block scheduled according to the interval specified here. Valid values are 1-300 seconds.
- Rediscover Interval
- This interval specifies the frequency that the data collector will perform a rediscover operation on the collection targets. Valid values are 1-168 hours.
- Client Cleanup Interval
- Wireless client statistics stored by the data collector are periodically cleaned up according to this interval. When the Collection Client Limit has been reached, clients that have been inactive longer than the time specified in the Time between Collection Client Limit Events will be aged out.
- Collection Client Limit
- The maximum number of wireless clients that can have statistics stored per collection interval. Valid values are 1 to 5000.
- Time between Collection Client Limit Events
- During a client cleanup, if a client has been inactive for the amount of time specified here, then the client is aged out. Historical statistics already persisted are not removed.
- Max Outstanding SNMP per Collector
- The number of SNMP requests that a collector will make simultaneously. The data collector works with blocks of SNMP requests, starting a new block each time the outstanding block completes. Valid values are 1-500.
- Monitor Mode Enabled
- Use this option to enable or disable Monitor mode statistic collection. If Monitor mode is disabled, the Monitor mode option will not be available when configuring device or interface statistics collection. All Monitor mode statistic collection will be stopped and the monitor cache is cleared. For more information on the Monitor mode, see Enable Report Data Collection.
- Time to Verify Monitor Target Interval (hours)
- The interval between a Management Center check of all targets (devices and interfaces) set to Monitor mode statistic collection. The check generates a summary event in the Console event log (one for devices and one for interfaces) that shows the number of targets where corresponding threshold alarms are not configured. Those targets should have Monitor mode disabled, or appropriate threshold alarms should be configured, in order to reduce unnecessary statistic collection.
