General Options


The General Options category of the options tree list allows you to configure settings that apply every day on which a task is scheduled to run. You set general options to specify:

  • Effective date--This is the date on which the schedule you define becomes effective. A task can not run prior to this date.
  • Time window--This is the time period during which the task can begin on any scheduled run day.
  • Restart time interval--This is the time interval used to restart a task during any scheduled run day.

    After setting general options, you can specify the days on which the task runs by setting run day options.

    The following sections describe how to configure general options:

  • "Setting an Effective Date" on page 12
  • "Specifying a Time Window" on page 13
  • "Restarting a Task Within Its Time Window" on page 16
  • "Working with a Time Window That Extends Past Midnight" on page 15
