This section provides the steps for using the Client Service Configuration Utility to automate backups, manage existing scheduler services, create a new scheduler, and associate a client acceptor to manage the scheduler.

About this task

This example illustrates the use of the IBM® Storage Protect scheduler.

When the backup-archive client is registered with the IBM Storage Protect server, the procedure involves the following steps:

1. On the server:
   1. Define a schedule for the policy domain to which the backup-archive client is registered.
   2. Associate the backup-archive client node to the defined schedule.
2. On the backup-archive client:
   1. Install the scheduler as a Windows service for the backup-archive client.
   2. Start the scheduler service installed for the backup-archive client.
