Field descriptions

Schedule Name
Specifies the name of the schedule.
Description
Specifies the description of the schedule.
Command
Specifies the command that is scheduled.
Priority
Specifies the priority value for this schedule.
Start Date/Time
Specifies the initial starting date and time for this schedule.
Duration
Specifies the length of the startup window.
Maximum Run Time (Minutes)
Specifies the number of minutes during which server processes that are started by the scheduled commands must be completed. If processes are still running after the maximum run time, the central scheduler cancels the processes.
Tips:
  • This parameter does not apply to some processes, such as duplicate-identification processes, which can continue to run after the maximum run time.
  • Another cancel time might be associated with some commands. For example, the MIGRATE STGPOOL command can include a parameter that specifies the length of time that the storage pool migration runs before the migration is automatically canceled. If you schedule a command for which a cancel time is defined, and you also define a maximum run time for the schedule, the processes are canceled at whichever cancel time is reached first.
Schedule Style
Specifies whether classic or enhanced schedule rules are used.
Period
Specifies the time between startup windows (assuming DAYOFWEEK=ANY). This is not displayed for enhanced syntax schedules.
Day of Week
Specifies the day of the week on which the startup windows begin.
Month
Specifies the months during which the schedule will run. This is not displayed for classic syntax schedules.
Day of Month
Specifies the days of the month during which the schedule will run. This is not displayed for classic syntax schedules.
Week of Month
Specifies the weeks (first, second, third, fourth, or last) of the month during which the schedule will run. This is not displayed for classic syntax schedules.
Expiration
Specifies the date after which this schedule will no longer be used. If this column is blank, the schedule does not expire.
Active?
Specifies whether the schedule has been processed according to the time and date set for this schedule.
Last Update by (administrator)
Specifies the name of the administrator that most recently updated the schedule. If this field contains a $$CONFIG_MANAGER$$, the schedule is associated with a domain that is managed by the configuration manager.
Last Update Date/Time
Specifies the last date and time the schedule was modified.
Managing Profile
Specifies the profile or profiles to which the managed server subscribed to get the definition of this schedule.
