Guidelines for Entering Time Values for Service Schedules
When you enter time schedules, you can use the values in the following list. See Setting the Time Schedule (SRC CLI) for a description of the options.
 | Note: Dates in the to statements apply only to services that have an authorization plug-in configured. If an authorization plug-in is not configured for the service associated with the schedule, the entries in the to statements are ignored. |
- *—Asterisks are interpreted as follows:
- Minutes and hours:
- 0 if used in the from or to statements of a scheduled event
- First or last if used in the statements of a schedule exclusion
- Time zones—Local SAE time zone
- All other options—First through last
- For options in the to statements, * for the end time is equivalent to “deny service activation after this start date.”
- For dates in the from statements, * is equivalent to “deny service activation before this end date.”
- Minutes and hours:
- Range of numbers separated by a hyphen. The range is inclusive; for example, 1-5 for the hour specifies hours 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
- List of numbers or ranges separated by commas. For example, 1,2,5,9 or 0-4,8-12.
- Skip values in ranges:
- To skip a number’s value through the range, follow a range with /<number>. For example, 0-23/2 used in the hour option specifies that the event occurs every other hour.
- Skip values with *. If you want to specify every two hours,
use */2.
Note:
- In general, if you set both a day-of–month and a day-of-week, then the service scheduler uses the day-of-month configuration. However, using the weekly recurrence feature, if you set both a day-of–month and a day-of-week, then the service scheduler uses the day-of-week configuration.
- When the day-of-week is configured and the weekly-recur-freq is set to a value greater than 1, then the service scheduler performs the scheduled service changes based on the weekly-recur-freq configuration, whereas if the weekly-recur-freq is set to 0 or 1, then the service scheduler performs the scheduled service changes based on the day-of-week configuration.
