You can modify the default collector settings for all future discovery elements by clicking the Edit

() button, or by selecting one or more collectors using the checkboxes and clicking Edit Selected. The following properties are available when you modify default collector settings:

•Enable selected collectors for newly discovered elements – Each collector is designed to gather data for a specific type of elements. If you select this checkbox, the management server will start the selected collectors automatically whenever it discovers a system matching the element type supported by a selected collector. This means that the start time of the selected collectors for the newly discovered system is set to the same time as when the system is discovered.

If you do not select this checkbox, the collectors are still available to the discovered elements, but the collector schedules are stopped by default. You can start any of the collectors after a system is discovered using one of the Data Collector Configuration pages. For example, Configuration > Report, Configuration > Performance, or Configuration > Backup.

•Repeat Interval – Specifies how often the collector should run on a recurring basis when the management server starts a collector schedule for an element type.
