B.3 Event
The User login option lets you trigger the event schedule when the user logs in to the device.
B.4 Monthly
Select the day of the month to run the scheduled event on and set other restrictions that might apply.
The Monthly schedule applies to policies only; you cannot configure a bundle with the Monthly
schedule.
Day of the Month: Select one of the following options:
Š
Start the Scheduled Event on a Specific Day of the Month: Specify the day of the month on
which to run the scheduled event.
Š
Start the Scheduled Event on the Last Day of the Month: Select this option to run the
scheduled event on the last day of the month. For example, for the month of February, the event
runs on the 28th (except for leap years, in which case it runs on the 29th); for the month of
December, the event runs on the 31st.
Select When Schedule Execution Should Start: Select one of the following options:
Š Start Immediately at Start Time: The scheduled event runs immediately at the time that you
specify in the Start Time box.
Š
Start at a Random Time between Start Time and End Time: This option randomly spreads
out the scheduled event times so the event is not run at the same time on all devices. You can
use this option to avoid possible network overload. For example, if you want to distribute or
install a bundle to 100 users, you could use the
Start at a random time between start time and
end time option to specify a one-hour block of time (starting at the scheduled start time) in
which to randomly deploy or install the bundle to the various devices.
Start Time\End Time: Use the down-arrows to select the start and end times of the scheduled
event.
IMPORTANT: Be aware that ZENworks Linux Management uses the End Time as the “expiration
time.” If a bundle or policy is in the middle of being executed, execution stops at the specified time.
Use Greenwich Mean Time (GMT): Usually, a schedule is based on the device’s local time zone.
If your network spans different time zones and you schedule an application to run at 1:00 p.m., it
runs at 1:00 p.m. in each time zone. This option lets you specify a single time across the globe.
You can, for example, select this option to have bundles deployed or installed on devices at the same
time regardless of their time zones.
Set the “Black Out” Time Ranges when Execution Should Not Occur: Click Add to display the
Specify Black-Out Time Period dialog box. Use the Start/End date and the Start/End time options to
specify the time period in which you do not want the scheduled event run. You can use this option to
minimize network traffic during a certain time period.
