Configuring Schedulers

The following guidelines apply to schedulers:

A policy is active during the time when the scheduler it refers to is also active.
When a scheduler is off, the policy is unavailable for policy lookup.
A scheduler can be configured as one of the following:
- Scheduler can be active for a single time slot, as specified by a start date and time and a stop date and time.
- Scheduler can be active forever (recurrent), but as specified by the daily schedule. The schedule on a specific day (time slot) takes priority over the daily schedule.
- Scheduler can be active within a time slot as specified by the weekday schedule.
- Scheduler can have a combination of two time slots (daily and timeslot).

To configure a scheduler, you enter a meaningful name and a start and stop time for the scheduler. You can also attach comments.

To configure a scheduler, use either J-Web or the CLI configuration editor.
