Setting the VAIL Provider Polling Interval

You can use vaildiag to set the polling interval for array providers. The polling interval determines how often the VAIL provider queries the storage arrays it manages for updated status.

  To set the provider polling interval

• Issue a command similar to the following:

/SETDEFPOLLINGINT -provider ProviderName -pollinginterval minutes

provider ProviderName specifies the VAIL provider whose polling interval you are setting. To obtain a ProviderName list for all VAIL providers on the machine, issue the vaildiag /PROVIDERS command.

pollinginterval minutes specifies the polling interval for the VAIL provider. If you enter an invalid value, the default value is used. The minimum interval is 1 minute; the default value is 30 minutes.
