Configuring the Cloud Resource Polling Interval
The Aviatrix Controller runs a full inventory of your clouds every four hours, and then listens to events every minute to learn about updates to its resources. For example, if you modified your Cloud Tags, you may want to poll data more frequently so that CoPilot reflects those changes.
On the CoPilot Groups > Settings tab, the Cloud Resource Polling slider is On by default.
|
If you want to turn Off Cloud Resource Polling, a warning displays indicating that this will impact key functionalities such as Distributed Cloud Firewall, SmartGroups, Cloud Assets, and Dashboard and Topology features. You must select the I understand the implications checkbox to continue. Also, lowering the polling interval can create more load on the Controller. The default setting should be sufficient. |
Enter the desired polling interval in minutes (default is 15). This can be a value between 1-1440.
|
Fifteen minutes is the interval at which the Controller polls for updates to the SmartGroups. |
You can manually trigger a poll to fetch resources directly from your clouds by clicking Refetch Cloud Resources on the Groups > SmartGroups tab. The poll may take several minutes to complete depending on the size of your environment.
