Parameters

minutes (Required)
Specifies the approximate number of minutes between status monitoring server queries. You can specify an integer in the range 1 - 2440. The default value is 5.
Restrictions:
  • In a storage environment that is monitored by the Operations Center, set the same refresh interval on the hub and spoke servers. If you use different intervals, the Operations Center can show inaccurate information for spoke servers.
  • Short status refresh intervals use more space in the server database and might require more processor and disk resources. For example, decreasing the interval by half doubles the required database and archive log space. Long intervals reduce the currency of Operations Center data but better suit a high-latency network configuration.
  • A status refresh interval of less than 5 minutes can cause the following issues:
    • Operations Center data that is supposed to be refreshed after the defined interval takes a longer time to be refreshed.
    • Operations Center data that is supposed to be refreshed almost immediately when a related change occurs in the storage environment also takes a longer time to be refreshed.

Set the refresh interval for status monitoring

Specify that the server status is queried every 6 minutes, by issuing the following command:
set statusrefreshinterval 6
