2nd case...
Well, even if a server reboot between the polling time, Xymon should 
notice it.
In case of a Linux/Unix server, the uptime, which you can see at the CPU 
data will change and will show you an alert.
So increasing the polling time, is not really necessary, I think.

If you wanna get noticed of the behavior, you might should add an alert, 
to get an email/SMS, if a machine rebooted.

    I monitor our switches, and routers using devmon. You then can get
    all interesting data via SNMP, which works very well.
    You then can see traffic, vlan settings, error and much more about
    your network-hardware.
    It works like a charm in our Xymon 4.2.3.

        Hi,
        1) since we are monitoring ober 300 servers at a time in a
        custer, we want to know and analyser the network traffic in
        ethernet and infiniband switch .how we can monitor it using
        xymon system monitoring.os is rhel 5.2 and xymon version is 4.2.2

        2)Practical problem happening is that some of the nodes
        reboots but xymon doesnt show it. it may be because that
        happens in betwwen the polling period of the server. how to
        overcome this issue?same thing happens for disk and ncpu and
        external tests also that it does not identify and show these
        problems as it must be occuring in betwwn polling period .How
        to make it fast as ganglia
