By default, the collection is performed every 2 minutes. You can customize the polling interval by right-clicking the main Hardware icon > KM Commands > KM Settings > Polling Interval…
Once the discovery process is complete, the collection process starts:
| • | Every two minutes, Hardware Sentry spawns several PSL processes (fanColl, physicalDiskColl, logicalDiskColl, temperatureColl, etc.) that are responsible for the collection of information about a given device type. For example, fanColl will gather fan information from the different detected hardware information sources, as described in the corresponding ".hdf" Fan.Collect section. |
| • | These PSL processes are "attached" to the main Hardware icon (MS_HW_MAIN class) and not to the corresponding classes and instances. |
| • | No collection is performed on objects that have been paused. |
| • | When a device has been marked as "missing" by the discovery process (i.e. had been discovered and is no longer discovered), the collection process no longer queries the hardware information source, and simply sets the status of the object to alarm. |
