Schedules tab

This tab displays with gateways and groups.

The Schedules tab schedules actions for a specific date and time—instead of waiting for a monitor to trigger the action. Events can be scheduled to run once or repeatedly.

Note: Events are not inherited. Any group or gateway can schedule any event for any host. For security reasons, you should use schedule events from the gateway node or group of the asset you're targeting. This ensures scheduled events for these assets can be viewed only by users who are authorized to see them.

Click the Schedules tab for any gateway or group. The tab shows any previously scheduled events. Click the Add schedule event command. A list of event actions displays. Click one to edit the event.

The configuration details depend on the type of event action you select. When specifying a host, enter the DNS hostname or IP address. Scheduling an event from a parent group or gateway for the asset you're targeting is more likely to provide you with the appropriate credential, if one is required.
