# Interval

After Coordinator has collected new statistics from the Controllers, it compresses old data for each compression level by taking all intervals of the length specified by the `Interval` configuration parameter, and replacing them with an average or sample value.

Coordinator begins compression at the point where statistics have a timestamp that is divisible by the value of the `Interval` configuration parameter. An average value is used for compression of numerical statistics. For other statistics, Coordinator uses the most frequent value in the statistics for compression.

If you set `Interval` to `0`, Coordinator removes statistics that are older than the value of `MinAge`, rather than compressing them.

For clarity, HPE recommends that you specify the name of the level that deletes statistics as `ThrowAway`, rather than `CompressLevelN`.
