Kron?......no, its a Scheduler!

Basic Scheduler config
Prerequisites for the Scheduler

 

The scheduler has the following prerequisites:

  • You must enable any conditional features before you can configure those features in a job.

     

  • You must have a valid license installed for any licensed features that you want to configure in the job.

     

  • You must have network-admin user privileges to configure a scheduled job.

     

Guidelines and Limitations for the Scheduler

 

The scheduler has the following configuration guidelines and limitations:

  • The scheduler can fail if it encounters one of the following while performing a job:

     

  • Verify that you have configured the time. The scheduler does not apply a default timetable. If you create a schedule and assign jobs and do not configure the time, the job is not started.

     

  • While defining a job, verify that no interactive or disruptive commands (for example, copy bootflash: file ftp: URI, write erase, and other similar commands) are specified because the job is started and conducted noninteractively.
