Data Collection Scheduler

The selection made in the Data Collection Scheduler panel defines the data collection schedule to be used to collect performance metrics.

The following table lists the collectors being used by the cartridge and the default collection interval for each (as defined in the defaultSchedule).

The collections marked with an asterisk indicate collections with corresponding sections on the Exchange Metrics Management dashboard. When using the defaultSchedule, you can use either this setting on the agent properties page or the Metrics Management dashboard to modify these collection intervals. For those collectors not marked with an asterisk or if you are using a user-defined data collection schedule, you must use this setting to manage the data collection intervals. For more information on the Exchange Metrics Management dashboard, see Managing Exchange metrics.
