Start at a Random Time between Start Time and End Time:
Starts the event at a randomly
selected time between the time you specify in the Start Time and End Time boxes. You can use
this option to avoid possible network overload from concurrently scheduled events.
Restrict Schedule Execution to the Following Date Range:
Limits running of the event to
the time period specified by the starting and ending dates.
Fixed Interval:
This schedule lets you specify an interval between days to run the event. For
example, you can run the event every 14 days.
Select
Fixed Interval
, then fill in the following fields:.
Months, Weeks, Days, Hours, Minutes:
Specifies the interval between times when the event
is run. You can use any combination of months, weeks, days, hours, and minutes. For example,
both
7 days, 8 hours
and
1 week, 8 hours
provide the same schedule.
Start Date:
Specifies the initial start date for the interval.
Start Time:
Specifies the initial start time for the interval.
Process Immediately if Device Unable to Execute on Schedule:
The event is run
immediately if, for some reason, the schedule you configured results in the event not being able
to run.
Use Coordinated Universal Time:
The Start Time is converted to Universal Coordinated
Time (UTC). Select this option to indicate that the Start Time you entered is already in
Coordinated Universal Time and should not be converted. For example, suppose you are in the
Eastern time zone. If you enter 10:00 a.m. and select this option, the Start Time is scheduled for
10:00 UTC. If you don’t select this option, the Start Time is scheduled for 14:00 UTC because
Eastern time is UTC - 4 hours.
Restrict Schedule Execution to the Following Date Range:
Limits running of the event to
the time period specified by the start date, end date, and end time.
