Setting a Calendar-Based Schedule
Setting a Combined Schedule
You can also specify a combined schedule which consists of both a timer- and a
calendar-based schedule.
Setting a Randomized Interval
In order to make it difficult to predict your monitoring times, you may also set a
reporting schedule that, while dependent on your chosen
Interval
value, won't run
exactly that often.
Setting a Randomized Interval
If you check the
Randomized
checkbox, a random number is used to modify your
specified interval, in order to establish the time of the next monitoring. After each
monitoring, the calculation is performed again--with another random number. This
makes it extremely difficult to predict the time of your next monitoring. (However,
the average of all of the random-number-calculated intervals will, over time and
after a sufficient number of monitoring, be equal to your specified interval.)
