About the frequency of managed host, enclosure and switch information discovery

The following table describes the frequency of the managed host information updates in the Management Server database. The discovery on each managed host is divided into discovery families to focus on a particular functional area:

Family	Frequency in minutes	Discovered information
Host	1440	The operating system, packages, and networking for the host. Typically, most of the information that is related to this family does not change frequently.
SF	30	Volume Manager, File Systems, and the related storage network.
VCS	60	Cluster Server and the related information.
DB	360	Oracle, DB2, MSSQL, and Sybase databases and their storage dependencies.
LDR	1440	The licenses that are installed on the hosts.
NR	5	Configuration status and external faults.
Native	360	Third-party volume management information.
PCV_NOTIFY	30	Policy check violations computed on Management Server and on managed hosts earlier than 6.1. Violations computed on managed hosts 6.1 or later do not require separate discovery.
Zones	120	Oracle Solaris zones and their storage dependencies.
LDoms	120	Oracle Solaris LDoms, and related CPU and memory information.
KVM	120	KVMs, and their correlation with the host.
Hyper-V	120	Virtual machines and storage discovery.
LPAR	360	Hosts, guests, and storage information.
VMware	360	ESX servers, virtual machines, and their storage dependencies. Note: This information is discovered only when Control Host Add-on is installed on a managed host that is designated as the control host.
Agentless	360	The following information on the hosts that are configured on the control host for agentless: The IP addresses, operating system, and the usage of the CPU and memory The host bus adapters (HBAs) on the host The disks on the hosts and their correlation with the array LUNs and multipathing The volumes and the volume groups on the native Volume Manager The mount points of the file systems and the correlation of the file systems with the disks In a VMware guest environment, the correlation of the guest with the virtual machine and the correlation of the storage in the guest with the storage exported from the ESX server. Note: This information is discovered only when Control Host Add-on is installed on a managed host that is designated as the control host.
VVRBW	60	Bandwidth usage information for Volume Replicator (VVR).
Docker	120	Docker containters, docker images, and storage exported to containers.

Note:

The discovery for the Storage Foundation and Cluster Server families is event driven and scheduled. This means that the discovery is triggered when configuration changes occur on the managed hosts. As a result, this information is updated in the InfoScale Operations Manager database in the following update. If configuration changes are not detected on the managed hosts, the communication between the managed host and Management Server is restricted to the heartbeat communication that occurs every five minutes.
