Task Command Remarks
Schedule a reboot.
• Schedule a reboot to occur at a specific
time and date:
schedule reboot at hh:mm [ date ]
• Schedule a reboot to occur after a delay:
schedule reboot delay { hh:mm | mm }
Use either command.
The scheduled reboot function
is disabled by default.
Scheduling jobs
You can schedule a job to automatically run a command or a set of commands without administrative
interference. The commands in a job are polled every minute. When the scheduled time for a command
is reached, the job automatically executes the command. If a confirmation is required while the
command is running, the system automatically inputs Y or Yes. If characters are required, the system
automatically inputs a default character string, or inputs an empty character string when there is no
default character string.
Job configuration approaches
You can configure jobs in a non-modular or modular approach. Use the non-modular approach for a
one-time command execution and use non-modular approach for complex maintenance work.
