Re: [Hyperic-hq-discuss] Reduce amount of data collected

[Noah S. <noa...@hy...>]

You can control the metric collection by going to:

Administration -> Monitoring Defaults

To reduce the amount of data coming into the HQ server you can:
1) Click "Disable Collection" for metrics you no longer want to collect.
2) Increase the collection interval for metrics you still want to collect (e.g. from 10 mins to 20 mins)

You can also do this on a platform by platform basis if you have a particular machine that needs its own configuration. Just make sure that you set the platform-specific settings _after_ you make the global changes (otherwise your platform-specific changes will be overwritten).
