Improve your network management coverage with
the addition of Orion Additional Polling Engines and greatly expand the number
of elements or applications that you can monitor with Orion. With the addition of Orion Additional Polling
Engines, you can:
- Distribute
the polling load for your Orion installation between multiple servers to
provide scalability for large networks
- Reduce
the impact on your poller performance as a result of rapid growth within your
virtualization infrastructure
- Extend
the functionality of Orion modules to your polling engines at no additional
cost
Licensing
Orion Additional Polling Engines are licensed
based on the number of Orion servers, physical or virtual they are deployed on
and automatically extend polling abilities to all of your Orion modules.
Deployment
Scenario
|
Required
Polling Engine License(s)
|
I

|
I
have NPM and APM installed on a single Orion core* server.
|
A
single Orion Polling Engine license will support both of the Orion core*
products and any Orion modules installed on your single Orion core server.
|
I
have NPM or APM installed across multiple Orion core* servers and want to
extend polling capacity for all servers.
|
You
will need an Orion Polling Engine license for each Orion core* server on
which you need additional polling capacity.
|
I
have NPM or APM installed across multiple Orion core* servers but only need
to add additional polling across one Orion core* server.
