Enabling the Command Scheduler

To use the scheduling feature, you must explicitly enable this feature on the required switches in the
fabric. By default, this feature is disabled in all switches in the Cisco MDS 9000 Family.
The configuration and verification commands for the command scheduler feature are only available
when this feature is enabled on a switch. When you disable this feature, all related configurations are
automatically discarded.
To enable the command scheduling feature, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch# config t
Step 2
switch(config)# feature scheduler
switch(config)# no feature scheduler
To display the command schedule status, use the show scheduler config command.
switch# show scheduler config
config terminal
feature scheduler
scheduler logfile size 16
end

Configuring Remote User Authentication

Prior to Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 3.0(3), only users local to the switch could perform scheduler
configuration. As of Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 3.0(3), remote users can perform job scheduling using
AAA authentication.
AAA authentication requires the clear text password of the remote user before creating and configuring
