2.In the right pane, double-click the volume on which you want to schedule file policies.

3.In the Scheduling area, click Change.

4.In the Schedule Options dialog box, change the following information as necessary:

•Start times—The time (in 24-hour notation) when FMA starts migrating files based on policies. If no start time is set, file policies are not processed for this volume unless they are run manually.

•Day of month—The days of the month when FMA runs policies.

•Months—The months when FMA runs policies.

•Days of week—The days of the week when FMA runs policies.

5.To limit the duration of the policy run, select Max duration (minutes) and set the number of minutes that FMA spends running policies.
