Scheduling Background Tasks

3In the Schedule Rebuild Tasks section, select the appropriate setting:

Follow Schedule or Ignore Schedule.

The illustration below shows this setting for the rebuild task schedule.

Note: Self-test schedules cannot be turned off in this way. To disable self-tests you must either remove all schedule times, or uncheck the tests listed in the Tasks column. For more information, see “Selecting Self-tests to be Performed” on page 80.

Removing a Task Schedule

By default, daily task schedules are defined, each starting at 12:00 am and running for 24 hours.

A maximum of seven schedules can be defined. When seven schedules are shown for any of the tasks, you must remove a schedule before you can add another.

To remove a task schedule

1Choose Management > Schedule from the menu bar.

The Scheduling page appears, showing the schedule for Rebuild/Migrate Tasks.

2To view Verify Tasks or Self-test Tasks, select it from the drop-down list at the top of the page.

3Select the checkbox next to the schedule(s) you want to remove.

4Click the Remove Checked button.

The page refreshes, and the selected schedule(s) are removed. You can now add another schedule.

Adding a New Task Schedule Slot

When you add a rebuild/migrate or verify task schedule, you specify the day of the week, time, and duration for the task. For self-test schedules, you specify day and time, but not duration. (Duration is not required for self-tests.)

Depending on the schedule and system workload, background tasks may require more than one scheduled duration to complete.
