Specify the Data Collection Frequency

By default, CA SRM is set up to perform data collection once each day. To change how often CA SRM collects data for a particular computer, select the value in the Frequency column (Every 1 Day, for example). The Data Collection Frequency dialog opens.

Use the text boxes and drop-down menus to indicate how often you want CA SRM to collect data on the selected computer.

Example

To have data collected once each week at 5:00 p.m. on a Friday, follow these steps:

1. Change the value of the Every drop-down menu from Days to Weeks.
2. Change the value of the On drop-down menu from Any Day to Friday.
3. Check the Specific Time check box and enter the value for 5:00 p.m. in military time (17:00).
4. Click OK.
