To change the frequency of autodiscovery of AHV assets

  1. On the left, click Workloads > Nutanix AHV.
  2. On the right, select AHV settings > Autodiscovery.
  3. Select Frequency > Edit.
  4. Use the up or down arrows to choose how often you want NetBackup to perform autodiscovery of AHV assets. Then click Save.

    The range from which you may choose is 1 hour to 24 hours. To set the autodiscovery frequency in minutes or seconds or to disable autodiscovery, you must use the AHV autodiscovery API.
