By default, autoverify is on for 9750 controllers, and for 9650SE and 9690SA
controllers running firmware 9.5.1 or later, and off all earlier controller
models.

For 9750 controllers, and 9650SE and 9690SA controllers running firmware
9.5.1 or later, auto-verify works in conjunction with the basic verify schedule.
When autoverify is on and the basic verify schedule is used (verify=basic), a
verify will automatically run at the basic verify time (Friday at midnight, by
default). If the system is not on at that time, verification will start the next
time the system is powered on. When the autoverify is on and the advanced
verify schedule is used (verify=advanced), autoverify will run during the
times specified with the advanced schedule. You can use the show verify
command to display the existing schedule windows. For more information
about using basic or advanced verify, see “/cx set verify=advanced|basic|1..5”
on page 72.

For all 9000 series controllers running pre-9.5.1 firmware, auto-verify allows
the controller to run the verify function once every 24 hours. If verify
schedule windows are set up and enabled, then the controller will only start an
automatic verify task during the scheduled time slots. If the verify takes
longer than the schedule window, the verify process will be paused and
restarted during the next verify schedule window.

For more about setting up verify schedules, see “Setting Up a Verify
Schedule” on page 66
