Parameter

Description

 

 

 

time is HH:MM, where HH is the hour and MM is the

 

minute past the hour. Use a 24-hour clock. For

 

example: startTime=14:27, which corresponds

 

to 2:27 PM.

scheduleInterval

Amount of time, in minutes that defines a

 

minimum between two copy-on-write operations.

 

It is possible for you to create a schedule in which

 

you have overlapping copy-on-write operations

 

because of the duration of a copy operation. You

 

can ensure that copy-on-write operations

 

maintain a correct interval by using this option. The

 

maximum value for the scheduleInterval

 

option is 1440 minutes. For example:

 

scheduleInterval=180.

endDate

Specific date to stop creating a snapshot virtual

 

disk and end the copy-on-write operations. The

 

format is MM:DD:YY, where MM is the month, DD

 

the day and YY the year. For example:

 

endDate=11:26:11.

noEndDate

Use this option to prevent a scheduled copy-on-

 

write operation from ending. If you later decide to

 

end the copy-on-write operations, you must re-

 

enter the create snapshotVirtualDisk

 

command and specify an end date.

timesPerDay

Number of times you want the snapshot schedule

 

to run in a day. For example, timesPerDay=4.

timeZone

Specifies the time zone to use for the scheduling

 

operations, using one of the following values:

 

GMT±HH:MM—The offset from Greenwich Mean

 

Time (GMT), in hours and minutes. For

 

example, GMT-06:00 must be used to specify

 

Central Standard Time (CST).

 

Text string—A standard time zone text

 

string, in quotation marks. For example, "USA/

 

Chicago" or "Germany/Berlin". Time zone text

 

strings are case sensitive. If an incorrect text

 

string is used, or no text string is specified, the

 

default time zone is GMT. For example, CST

 

can be specified in two different ways:

 

timeZone=GMT-06:00 or timeZone="USA/

 

Chicago.

NOTE: To remove a schedule, use the delete virtualDisk command with the schedule parameter. The delete command with the schedule parameter deletes only the schedule, not the snapshot virtual disk. Ensure that you do not inadvertently delete the virtual disk itself.
