Netdata: defining scan_interval

Is it possible to define scan_interval for Netdata?
Docs have no info for a possibility to use scan_interval for this integration.

Actually, I am rather satisfied with a default frequency (30 seconds, am I right?).
But if a monitored host is unavailable - the log is flooded by errors.

I am thinking about this case:

  1. Set a huge scan_interval for the integration, kind of this (prevent automatic update, except on HA startup):
sensor:
  - platform: netdata
    host: 192.168.x.x
    port: '19999'
    name: "some_host"
    scan_interval: 9999999999
    resources:
      cpu_softirq:
        data_group: cpu.cpu0
        element: softirq
        icon: mdi:cpu-32-bit
      cpu_user:
        data_group: cpu.cpu0
        element: user
        icon: mdi:cpu-32-bit
      ...
  1. Create an automation and update all created netdata sensors (oh, too many of them) with some frequency.
  2. Use a condition in the automation: if the monitored host is unavailable → do not update sensors.
