opCharts Collection Definition

Collection definitions (Collectors) apply a polling definition to a node.  

They specify the: 

• SNMP index to use (if required).

• The frequency to poll

• The amount of data to keep

• How long to collect for.

After Polling Definitions have been created, Collection Definitions can be created/edited/deleted in the GUI

and also from the CLI using:

opcharts-cli.pl

Importing and exporting of collection definitions is also supported using opcharts-cli.pl.  

Note that these include node names so transferring these between servers means the node needs to exist on both servers.
