Scheduler config on NX 9000

[Ramirov]

Hi team , 

I have a problem to config a schedule job on nexus 9000 ,  I received the message below.

USDC1NX9000.1(config)# scheduler job name a
Error: invalid userid

My NXOS: version 7.0(3)I7(1) and  Nexus9000 93180YC-EX chassis

Can anyone say me how to fix it or if this is a bug?

Thanks.

Hi !

Please, for the sake of saving steps, did you check if it is enabled? 

show scheduler config

it should say somewhere: 

feature scheduler
scheduler logfile size 16
end

 then you can define the job as shown here based on device version: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/datacenter/nexus9000/sw/7-x/system_management/configuration/guide/b_Cisco_Nexus_9000_Series_NX-OS_System_Management_Configuration_Guide_7x/b_Cisco_Nexus_9000_Series_NX-OS_System_Management_Configuration_...

Regards,

Please, if considered, mark as Helpful or as an answer, totally grateful.

Make sure you have enabled the feature scheduler

CORESW2# show feature | in scheduler
scheduler 1 enabled

If not use below commands :

CORESW2(config)# feature scheduler
CORESW2(config)# scheduler ?
aaa-authentication Password for AAA authentication(of logged in user)
job Define a job
logfile Scheduler log file configuration
schedule Define a schedule
transport Configure transport related configuration

Yes my friend the feature is enable

USDC1NX9000.1# sh feature | include sched
scheduler 1 enabled

USDC1NX9000.1# sh scheduler config
config terminal
feature scheduler
scheduler logfile size 1024
end

config terminal
scheduler aaa-authentication username xxxxxx password xxxxxxxx
end

USDC1NX9000.1(config)# scheduler job name Bkp
Error: invalid userid

Look at the below document for reference :

Note Remote users must authenticate with their clear text password before creating and configuring jobs.

Yeppp, I have to log in with the user configured in scheduler aaa-authentication to configure a job.

Thanks!!
