Configuring Data Collection Rates

The Configure Collection Rates dialog is available only for the server-level performance monitor. Use this dialog to change the rates at which statistics are collected.

When the performance monitor displays, a multi-threaded data collection engine collects monitored statistics at two different rates. Less-expensive statistics are collected more frequently, while more-expensive statistics are collected less frequently. To change this default collection rate, configure the rates yourself.

  1. In the Sybase Central tree view, select the server, then click the Performance Monitor tab.
  2. Right-click in the chart area and select Configure Collection Rates.
  3. Select the rates, in seconds, for statistics collection.
  4. To reduce the impact on server performance, increase the rate values so that statistics are collected less frequently.
  5. Click OK.
