Enable Randomization is activated when the number of managed nodes exceeds how many?

• A. The number of managed nodes exceeds 100
• B. The number of managed nodes equals 2,000
• C. The number of managed nodes equals 500
• D. The number of managed nodes exceeds 1,000

Answer: (D)

Randomization helps smooth out server load by staggering when many agents perform tasks. As the number of managed nodes grows, if all clients contact the server at the same time, it can create traffic spikes and slowdowns. Enabling Randomization shifts each client’s scheduled actions by a small, random delay, spreading the workload over time and improving scalability and performance. This feature turns on when the number of managed nodes exceeds 1,000. In smaller environments, it may be left off for predictability, but at scale it helps avoid burst traffic.
