Setting a Calendar-Based Schedule

Setting a Combined Schedule

You can also specify a combined schedule which consists of both a timer- and a calendar-based schedule.

Setting a Randomized Interval

In order to make it difficult to predict your monitoring times, you may also set a reporting schedule that, while dependent on your chosen Interval value, won't run exactly that often.

Setting a Randomized Interval

If you check the Randomized checkbox, a random number is used to modify your specified interval, in order to establish the time of the next monitoring. After each monitoring, the calculation is performed again--with another random number. This makes it extremely difficult to predict the time of your next monitoring. (However, the average of all of the random-number-calculated intervals will, over time and after a sufficient number of monitoring, be equal to your specified interval.)
