administrators who have policy rights for the domain or system rights can
control these schedules.
Schedule name: The schedule name can be any unique name you choose,
up to 30 characters long. It should represent the function it performs.
Start time: The time of day that you want the schedule to trigger your action.
Startup duration: The period in which the scheduler will initiate the schedule
after the start time.
Client schedules are very dependent on site requirements, but we have some
recommendations that are applicable for a wide range of environments.
Our recommended policy configuration includes two policy domains, one for
servers and one for workstations. We must therefore define a client backup
schedule for each domain. The parameters for each schedule are very similar
except for the domain name. The schedules start at 10 p.m. with a startup
window of three hours. The commands and output are shown in Example 12-14.

12.3.2 Defining an enhanced client schedule
An enhanced client schedule performs the same actions as a classic client
schedule, but allows you to be more specific with repetition intervals.
