Scheduling Network Device Discovery
To ensure that as many network devices as possible are switched on and detectable, the Network Device Discovery job is timed to run at 13:00 each day by default. Use the Schedule tab if you want to change the start time or frequency of the job.
To modify the job schedule:
1 In the Site Management folder, click the Device Discovery Configuration operation, and select the Schedule tab.
2 In the Start date list, enter the date when you want the operation to start.
3 In the Start time field, enter the time at which you want the operation to start.
4 In the Host list, select the Scheduler which Vector AM can use to start and monitor the job.
5 Choose a schedule:
To
run the operation once at the specified time and date, select Run once only.
To
run the operation regularly, select Repeat every and select the interval.
6 To prevent the Scheduler from running a repeat job at specific times or on specific days, deselect the intervals you want to exclude in the Start Control slots.
7 When you have specified the new schedule for the discovery job, click OK to save your changes.
Notes
Normally,
Schedulers start a job within 90 seconds of the specified start time. However, if the selected Host
is unavailable or already running at full capacity when a job is due to start, it will attempt to start
the outstanding job at the next available opportunity. To ensure that a job is restricted to specific
times or specific days, deselect the Start Control slots when the operation must not start.
The
details of jobs are displayed in the Console's Jobs & Schedulers folder.
