Switching partitions on/off on a time-driven basis

Time-driven commands
Time-driven execution of a command can be defined in the Tasks application of the
PRIMEPOWER ServerView Suite. The Tasks -> Create task function opens a calendar
window which provides a straightforward way of declaring a time scheme. The Node window
enables you to select a node (in this application the SMC must be specified). In the
Command window you can specify a single command or a script which is then executed with
root authorization at the specified times.
The definitions are activated when they have been defined, i.e. the task has the enabled
status. Clicking on the definition with the right mouse button and selecting the De-/Activate
function deactivates or reactivates it.
The Tasks application is a generally usable, convenient encapsulation of the cron job which
avoids errors. When a time scheme is defined corresponding entries are generated in the
crontab.
A separate calendar screen must be created for each command or script. Further condi-
tions for starting or suppressing reactions must be implemented in the script. These include,
for example, the inclusion of public holidays.
