Usage guidelines
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 enters Y or Yes. If characters are required, the system
automatically enters a default character string or an empty character string when no default character
string is available.
Follow these guidelines when you schedule a job by using the non-modular method:
• You can schedule only one job and run only one command with this method. If you perform the
schedule job command multiple times, the most recent configuration takes effect.
• To have the command successfully executed, check that the specified view and command are valid.
The system does not verify their validity.
• If you specify both the time1 and date arguments, the execution time or date must be later than the
current system time or date.
• If you specify the time1 argument, but not the date argument:
{ When time1 is earlier than the current system time, the command runs at time1 the next day.
{ When time1 is later than the current system time, the command runs at time1 of the current day.
• The interval between the scheduled time and the current system time cannot exceed 720 hours, or
30 days.
• Changing any clock setting can cancel the job set by using the schedule job command.
• After job execution, the configuration interface, view, and user status that you have before job
execution restore even if the job has run a command that changes the user interface (for example,
