Poll on demand

Manually poll objects

• Nodes
• Interfaces
• Volumes

Polling requests from the object. If the object has SNMP communication enabled, the manual poll pulls statistics. If SNMP is not available, the manual poll uses ICMP communication and returns only those values. You can see the immediate results of a manual poll on the details window of the object you poll. For more information, see the following sections:

• View node data and modify node properties
• View interface data and modify interface properties
• View volume details and modify volume properties
