Scheduling A Task; Configuration Guidelines; Configuration Procedure - HP 6125XLG Configuration Manual

Task
Specify the reboot delay
time.

Scheduling a task

You can schedule the device to automatically execute a command or a set of commands without
administrative interference.
You can configure a one-time schedule or a periodic schedule. A one-time schedule is not saved to the
configuration file, and is lost when the device reboots. A periodic schedule is saved to the startup
configuration file and is automatically executed periodically.

Configuration guidelines

• To make sure a task schedule can be executed as expected, check that the system time is correct. If
the system time is incorrect, reconfigure the system time or configure NTP. For more information
about NTP, see Network Management and Monitoring Configuration Guide.
Make sure all commands in a schedule are compliant to the command syntax. The system does not
•
check the syntax when you assign a command to a job.
• A schedule cannot contain any of these commands: telnet, ftp, ssh2, and monitor process.
A schedule does not support user interaction. If a command requires a yes or no answer, the system
•
always assumes that a Y or Yes is entered. If a command requires a character string input, the
system assumes that the default character string (if any) is entered, or a null string is entered.
A schedule is executed in the background, and no output (except for logs, traps, and debug
•
information) is displayed for the schedule.
