Based on the kind of metric (dynamic, trait, calltime), whether it is

collection interval. I am going to increase those defaults. Here is the
current defaults, along with my proposed increases - let me know what
you think about the new values (too high? too low?). The intervals
listed below are in minutes:
DEFAULTS
Metric Type Current, New
=================================================
NUMERIC METRICS:
SUMMARY:
Platform: 1 10
Server: 5 20
Service: 10 30
DETAIL: (these are just doubled from above)
Platform: 2 20
Server: 10 40
Service: 20 60
TRAITS:
SUMMARY: 10 30
DETAIL: 30 60
CALLTIME: 1 10
ANY OTHER METRIC: 10 30
These look good. I would go even a bit higher for the service defaults,
since users could have 5k or 10k services per platform - perhaps
10-20-40 and 20-40-80.
(side note: for those not familiar, a metric is set as a "summary"
metric by the "displayType" attribute in the<metric> metadata - its
just a way to let the system know you want to show its graph on the main
Monitoring tab - if it is a "detail" as opposed to "summary" metric,
the
graph isn't shown by default and we just show the data in the Tables
subtab of the Monitoring tab).
and for traits, summary traits are shown in the summary header (the
expandable area above the tab bar), whereas detail traits are not shown
there.
