Scheduling transmission criteria
Using the Connection Manager Transmit tab, you can set start and stop criteria along with a schedule
window.
1. Right-click the connection on the right pane of the Management Console and select Connection
Manager.
2. Select the Transmit tab. The Transmit tab contains three limit types: Start, Stop, and Window.
The transmission options for each limit type are displayed by highlighting a selection in the Limit
Type box.
At the top of the Transmit tab dialog box, the Enable Transmission Limiting check box
allows you to turn the transmission options on or off. You can enable the transmission options
by marking the Enable Transmission Limiting check box when you want the options to be
applied, but you can disable the transmission options, without losing the settings, by clearing
that check box.
Also at the top of the Transmit tab dialog box, the Clear All button, when selected, will remove
all transmission limitations that have been set under any of the limit types. The Clear button will
clear the settings only for the Limit Type selected.
3. When you schedule transmission start criteria, transmission will start when the criteria is met
and will continue until the queue is empty or a transmission stop criteria is met. Select the Start
option in the Limit Type box.
Define the start options for Storage Mirroring transmission by using any combination of the
following options.

Transmission session start—This option establishes a date and time of the day to begin
transmitting data. For example, you may want to specify a transmission time that corresponds
to a low bandwidth usage time. Once started, Storage Mirroring will continue to transmit data
until the queue is empty or until another limitation stops the transmission. Specify a Date and
Time to start transmitting data. The down arrow next to the date field displays a calendar
allowing easy selection of any date. The time field is formatted for any AM or PM time.
NOTE: Storage Mirroring checks the schedule once every second, and if a user-defined criteria
is met, transmission will start or stop, depending on the option specified.
Any replication sets from a source connected to the same IP address on a target will share
the same scheduled transmission configuration.
