About scheduler

 

The scheduler defines a job and its schedule (timetable). A job is a routine task or tasks defined as a command list and completed according to a specified schedule which is the timetable for completing a job.

 

There are two types of mode in schedule,

  • Periodic mode - A recurring interval that continues until you delete the job
  • One-time mode - Job is completed only once at a specified time.

 

The scheduler allows you to maintain the activities such as;

  • Quality of Service policy changes
  • Data backup
  • Saving a configuration

 

Configuration

 

N7K(config)# scheduler job name dixho-job3
N7K(config-job)# cli var name timestamp $(TIMESTAMP) ;copy start bootflash:/dixho2
N7K(config-job)# exit

 

N7K(config)# scheduler schedule name dixho-sch1
N7K(config-schedule)# job name dixho-job3
N7K(config-schedule)# time start now repeat 60

N7K(config-schedule)# end

 

Verification
