Configuring Polling Frequency

Tip

If there are going to be a lot of console users, increasing the pollfreq values can help reduce the load on the Cloud Controller by limiting the number of times that updates are requested for users' resources.

To configure the polling frequency for console updates from the CLC:

Modify the pollfreq entry in the [server] section of the configuration file with a polling value in seconds. For example:
```
pollfreq: 20
```
You can optionally override the main polling frequency value specified in pollfreq by adding an entry in the form pollfreq.<resouce_name>. Valid resource name values are: images, instances, keypairs, groups, addresses, volumes, and snapshots. For example:
```
pollfreq.images: 60
pollfreq.snapshots: 10
pollfreq.instances: 5
pollfreq.groups: 20
pollfreq.addresses: 30
pollfreq.volumes: 30
pollfreq.keypairs: 60
```
