> ### Default polling and trend values

> During the OpenEdge server discovery process, Fathom creates a resource monitoring plan for each AppServer broker, WebSpeed broker, and NameServer instance that it discovers. At that time, each resource inherits and displays default polling and trending values as defined for that specific resource type on the Resource Monitor Defaults page.

> To display OpenEdge resource-specific default values:

> 1. Select Resources from the menu bar. On the Fathom Resources page, click Resource Monitor Defaults. The Resource Monitor Defaults page appears:

> 2. Click the link associated with the specific resource default values you want to review: NameServer Resource Defaults, WebSpeed Resource Defaults, or AppServer Resource Default s. The associated OpenEdge Resource Defaults page appears as described:
> 1. If you click NameServer Resource Defaults, the NameServer Resource Defaults page appears:

> 2. If you click WebSpeed Resource Defaults, the WebSpeed Resource Defaults page appears:

> 3. If you click AppServer Resource Defaults, the AppServer Resource Defaults page appears:

> Note: OpenEdge-specific resource log file monitor defaults are also set on the File Resource Defaults page. For information about the AppServer-, WebSpeed-, and NameServer-specific log file monitors, see the appropriate chapter in this guide.

> 3. Change the default values, as necessary. Individual resources created from these categories inherit the updated default values. However, you can still override values for individual resources.
> Note that you can revert back to the original Fathom-supplied default values at any time by clicking Restore Fathom Defaults.

> ##### Trend default values for WebSpeed and AppServer brokers

> Data for rule evaluation, graphical displays, and reports is not available unless brokers are configured to collect and trend data to the FathomTrendDatabase and to poll.

> Before you can use either data collection or the Configuration Advisor feature successfully, you must set up these options:

> - Trend
> - Polling
> Note: See the "Data collection details" section for details about how to implement data collection with WebSpeed brokers. See the "Data collection details" section for details about how to use data collection with AppServer brokers. See Chapter 7, "Calculating Rule Threshold Settings Using the Configuration Advisor" for details about data collection and polled rules with WebSpeed and AppServer brokers.
