# Polling

The value to use for the Polling configuration parameter for this child server.

Set this parameter to `false` to prevent the Distributed Index Handler from periodically polling each job in the index queue for this child server to determine the jobs that are complete.

If `Polling` is to set `false`, DIH reports a job finished after the action has been sent.
