(Optional) Creating Your Own Backup Schedule

Follow this procedure only if none of the pre-built queue schedules in SEQ work for your business.  For example, you want backup to run at 5:30 am, but there is no pre-built schedule for 5:30 am. Always check SEQ first; there might be an existing schedule that will work fine for you.

  1. From the Network Access Function prompt, type MQS and press <Enter>.  The Maintain Queue Schedules screen displays.

  2. Press <Add> to insert the new schedule.

  1. In the blank space that is created, type a name for the schedule you’re creating.  For example, type SHUTDWN.  Then press <Enter>.

  1. In the screen that displays, press the right-arrow key twice, then press the spacebar.  The word "Time" should now be highlighted.

  1. Enter the appropriate time in the blank spaces.  In this example, you’d enter 5:30 AM.  Your cursor will then skip to the "Day of Week" section.

  2. Press the <Spacebar> seven times to highlight each day of the week.

  1. Press <End> to return to the first screen.

  2. Press <Change> to save your changes.

  3. Follow the procedure in the topic, "Scheduling Backup to Run," to link your schedule to your SHUTDWN queue.
