Schedule

The schedule command configures the type of schedule to run, including one-time only (oneshot), periodic, or calendar-based runs. All runs are determined by month, day of month or weekday, hour, minute, and interval (seconds). If end-time and interval are both configured, whichever condition is reached first is applied.

Use the following CLI syntax to configure the type of schedule to run.

config>system>cron
        schedule schedule-name[owner schedule-owner]
            count number
            day-of-month {day-number [..day-number]|all}
            description description-string
            end-time [date|day-name] time
            hour {hour-number [..hour-number] | all}
            interval seconds 
            minute {minute-number [..minute-number]|all} 
            month {month-number [..month-number]|month-name [..month-name]|all}
            no shutdown 
            type {periodic|calendar|oneshot} 
            weekday {weekday-number [..weekday-number]|day-name [..day-name]|all}
            shutdown
