Re: [nv-l] Netview polling

[wolfgang.bergbauer@attglobal.net]

Hi Mohammed,

When I remember correctly the polling
algorithm is quite straight forward, so if your timeouts and retries are
through and your node is flagged as down. Now I do not know if the time
cacluated for the next cycle is added at the beginning of the polling action
or in the end of the polling action.

You could of course write some rules
and scripts which simulate your required behaviour, but I would do this
only for a very limited amount of devices.

Kind regards,

        Wolfgang

Subject	[nv-l] Netview polling

Hi all,

If Netview finds through polling (ICMP/SNMP) that particular device is down will it waits till the polling interval comes or will it check again whether the device is up or not.

For example if polling interval is 20 minutes. If particular device is down it will poll the device (which is down) after 20 minutes or it will poll immediately to check it is up or down.

If it waits for 20 minutes to poll the device which is down, can we configure Netview so that once it finds the device is down it should reduce the polling time for that particular device.

Waiting reply from you guys.

Thanks.
