Generic Datacenter object push interval to gateway
In settings of Generic Datacenter object you can specify the pull interval, how often management server should update object from the source URL.
But what is push interval to the gateways where this object used in policy rules?
From my experiments on R81 Take92 management server
I am getting around 15 minutes(!) delay between change of the object on management server and enforcement of the change on gateway.
cloud_proxy.elg shows no errors
Is it by design such interval or where to look for issue or how to change that interval?

I believe from memory its 300 seconds = 5 mins

It looks like it is not 5min but 15min
here is from cloud_proxy.elg end of one request to push changes to gateway and start of the other
04/10/24 18:39:36,063 INFO ida.api.IDACpridRequestSenderClient [gateway-updater_CP1]: Response from gw xx.xxx.xxx.xxx is 'OK'
04/10/24 19:43:35,344 INFO ida.api.IDACpridRequestSenderClient [gateway-updater_CP1]: Sending update to gw xx.xxx.xxx.xxx: #!/bin/bash
one set of objects were changed at 04/10/24 19:29, and the other at 04/10/24 19:35
(there were no more changes since last push at 04/10/24 18:39)
Where can I look for this push interval value?

I thought there was command to check it, but I could be wrong.

How many gateways are involved in the environment with these objects in the policy?
vsec.conf otherwise holds relevant parameters.

there are only 2 gateways where these objects used in the policy rules
here is from vsec.conf
# delay time between GW update cycles
enforcementUpdateIntervalTime=10
# TTL (mins) for objects expiration on GW in case
# there are no updates from the Controller
enforcementSessionTimeoutInMinutes=10080
autoUpdateIntervalInSeconds=30
# max number of GWs to update concurrently
enforcementThreadPool=5
# Generic Data Center scanner config
ctf.scannerInterval=60
ctf.deleteTemporaryFiles=true
ctf.ignoreInvalidContent=false
ctf.scanningLogsOn=false
ctf.scanFlatListFiles=false
I suppose this parameter ( ctf.scannerInterval=60 ) determines push interval. So it should be 1min.
here is a full timeline from another test:
05/10/24 20:23 - Object changed, 1 IP address (lets say it 192.0.2.2) added
05/10/24 20:38 - Object changed, IP address removed (the same as was added 15min ago, i.e. 192.0.2.2)
05/10/24 20:40 - Changes detected and pushed to gateways but with IP address 192.0.2.2 that was added 17min ago and removed 2 min ago
05/10/24 20:49 - Changes detected and pushed to the gateway with IP address 192.0.2.2 removed
No other Generic Datacenter objects where changed during that period, so no interference from other changes.
