command is running, the system automatically enters Y or Yes. If characters are required, the system
automatically enters a default character string or an empty character string when no default character

Job configuration methods
You can configure jobs using a non-modular or modular method. Use the non-modular method for a
one-time command execution and use non-modular method for complex maintenance work.
Table 18 A comparison of non-modular and modular methods
Comparison item
Scheduling a job by using the
non-modular method
Scheduling a job by using the
modular method
Configuration method Configure all elements in one command. Separate job, view, and time settings.
Can multiple scheduled
jobs be configured?
No. Yes.
Can a job contain multiple
commands?
No.
If you use the schedule job command
multiple times, the most recent
configuration takes effect.
Yes.
You can use the time command in job
view to configure commands to be
executed at different time points.
Supported views
User view and system view. In the
schedule job command, shell represents
user view, and system represents system
view.
All views. In the time command,
monitor represents user view.

Commands in all views.
Can a job be repeatedly
executed?
No. Yes.
Can a job be saved? No. Yes.
Can a job be backed up
to the standby MPUs?
No. Yes.
Configuration guidelines
• To have a job successfully run a command, check that the specified view and command are valid.
The system does not verify their validity.
• The configuration interface, view, and user status that you have before job execution restores even
if the job has run a command that changes the user interface (for example, telnet, ftp, and ssh2),
the view (for example, system-view and quit), or the user status (for example, super).
• The jobs run in the background without displaying any messages except log, trap and debugging
messages.
• Using the modular method:
{
Every job can have only one view and up to 10 commands. If you specify multiple views, the
view specified most recently takes effect.
