Change Detection Interval

The Configuration Agent periodically checks for any changes in the configuration data using the following two intervals:

• General Detection Interval (ChangeDetectionInterval): interval in minutes between the change detection cycles for the desktop application's (client's) configuration data.

  ---

  Note –

  Specifying -1 turns off change detection.

  ---

• Interval for Agent Settings (DaemonChangeDetectionInterval): interval in minutes between the change detection cycles for the agent-specific configuration settings.

  ---

  Note –

  Specifying -1 turns off change detection.

  ---

You can use the general detection interval to tune the propagation of remote configuration data changes to client side applications. The value provided for this setting is the maximum length of time in minutes that elapses before remotely made changes are reflected in the client applications.

Smaller values result in increased Configuration Agent and LDAP server activity. As a result, use caution when you adjust the value of the settings. For example, in an initial deployment phase, you can set the value to one minute so that you can easily test the impact of remote configuration on client applications. After you complete the testing, return this setting to the initial value.
