Choosing a run interval
Use the following table to help determine the type of interval to choose in the Schedule a Job
wizard.
Past-time adjustment Behavior Interval type
If you enter a time of day that is in the past, the
schedule wizard adjusts the start time by adding
5 minutes to the current time.
Example: You enter 2:00 PM when it is already
2:05 PM. The adjusted start time becomes 2:10
PM. Runs a job one time (today) at the specified
time.
Example: run at 2:00 PM (today) Run once
If you enter a time of day that is in the past, the
schedule wizard adjusts the initial run time by Runs a job every x hours, or hours-and-minutes,
or minutes only, after initially running at the
specified time (today).
Example: run every 48 hours after first running
at 2:00 PM (today)
Every x
hours-minutes
adding whole hours until the time is at least 1
hour in the future.
Example: You enter 2:00 PM when it is already
2:05 PM. The adjusted time for the initial run
Minimum interval = 10 minutes
becomes 4:00 PM. Subsequent runs are at 4:00
PM.
Maximum interval = 999 hours
See also Hourly interval equivalents .
If you enter a time of day that is in the past, the
schedule wizard makes no adjustment to the start
time, but the first run occurs the next day.
Example: You enter 2:00 PM when it is already
2:05 PM. The first run of the job is at 2:00 PM
the next day. Runs the job once a day at the specified time.
Example: run at 2:00 PM every day Once per day
If you specify a day of the week or time of day
that is in the past, the schedule wizard adjusts
the start day by adding one week.
Example: On Monday, 21 November you specify
Monday at 2:00 PM when it is already 2:05 PM Runs a job once a week at the specified day
and time.
Example: run on Mondays at 2:00 PM Weekly on
or is already Tuesday. The adjusted start day
becomes next Monday, 28 November.
