> How is it possible to change the default collection frequency/interval in node_exporter?
There isn't one. node_exporter only collects when scraped (make a http request to it). If you don't scrape it, it doesn't collect anything. If you're scraping it from prometheus, then it's controlled by scrape_interval in the scrape_config (job definition). If not set there, then it falls back to the global scrape_interval, and if that's not set either, it defaults to 1 minute.
