schedule --add --day <day of the week> [--cleaner] [--replication] [--start_time <hh:mm>] [-- stop_time <hh:mm>] [--name <name>]

Syntax

schedule --add --day Sunday --start_time 06:00 --stop_time 22:00 --cleaner

Note: Set a corresponding stop time for every start time in each Cleaner (or Replication) schedule you create. The following example shows setting up a Cleaner schedule for the remainder of the week (Monday through Saturday).

Note: Do not select 00:00 for a start time or stop time endpoint for midnight when setting Cleaner or Replication schedules (instead, use either the 23:55 or 00:05 value).

Result

Successfully updated Cleaner schedule.

Note: To create a Replication schedule (use the DR Series system CLI --replication command), and the same process shown here to schedule the start and stop times for a Replication schedule. This lets you schedule start and stop times for each day in the week in which you want the Replication process to run.

schedule --delete --day <day of the week> [--cleaner] [--name <name>] [--replication]

Usage:
     schedule --show [--cleaner]
