automatically:

Figure 9-10. Statistics Sampling Rate Dialog Box

3. In the Sampling Rate box, type the sampling rate interval. The range is

1 second to 30 seconds. The default is 5 seconds.

NOTE: The faster the polling rate, the more quickly the SANblade Manager

GUI receives indications from the host. However, faster polling rates

consume more of your system’s CPU and network resources and

slow the system.

4. Click OK to set the interval. Click Cancel to not set the interval.
