cpqLinOsCommonPollFreq
Module: CPQLINOS-MIB
OID (symbolic): CPQLINOS-MIB::cpqLinOsCommonPollFreq
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.232.23.2.1.4.1
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-write
Description: The Management Agent's polling frequency.
The frequency, in seconds, at which the Agent requests information from the device driver. A frequency of zero (0) indicates that the Insight Agent retrieves the information upon request of a management station, it does not poll the device driver at a specific interval.
If the poll frequency is zero (0) all attempts to write to this object will fail. If the poll frequency is non-zero, setting this value will change the polling frequency of the Insight Agent. Setting the poll frequency to zero (0) will always fail, an agent may also choose to fail any request to change the poll frequency to a value that would severely impact system performance.
What is cpqLinOsCommonPollFreq?
This read-write integer (0-65535 seconds) sets the Management Agent's polling frequency, the interval at which it requests information from the device driver, with 0 meaning the agent only fetches data on demand rather than polling continuously. An admin tunes this to balance monitoring freshness against system overhead, and per the description, once set to 0 the object can no longer be changed by writing to it. For example, an admin wanting near-real-time CPU statistics might lower this to 5 seconds, while one prioritizing minimal agent overhead on a busy server might leave it higher.
