Disabling Logical Drives Monitoring

 Home  Previous  Next

Discovering and collecting logical drives metrics are resource-intensive actions that can create extra workload on the PATROL Agent and the targeted system. To limit the number of instances created and therefore reduce the system resource consumption, administrators can disable the monitoring of all the logical drives of a system.
