For environments with many users and a fairly heavy monitoring load, setting up a dedicated UI (user interface) instance can often help to improve data collection performance and UI responsiveness.

 

To configure up.time versions prior to 5.2 to To configure Uptime Infrastructure Monitor to run only with the user interface and skip all data collection tasks, add the following line lines to the /uptime.conf file and then restart the up.time data collector core service:

 

uiOnlyInstance=true

 

To configure up.time version 5.2 or later to run only with the user interface and skip all data collection tasks, add the following 3 lines to the /uptime.conf file and then restart the up.time data collector core service:

 

uiOnlyInstance=true

on the UI-only instanace (change HOSTNAME to the hostname or IP address of the data collector instance).  After saving the file, restart the "up.time Data Collector" service (uptime_core on Linux).

will also need to set the appropriate DB settings in the uptime.conf file of the UI-only instance (i.e. identical to the uptime.conf file in the data collector).
