Field Description
Scheduling
Run Type You can specify when you want to run the configuration polling job.
To do this, select one of these options from the drop-down menu:
• Daily—Runs daily at the specified time.
• Weekly—Runs weekly on the day of the week and at the specified time.
• Monthly—Runs monthly on the day of the month and at the specified time.
The subsequent instances of periodic jobs will run only after the earlier instance of the job is complete.
For example, if you have scheduled a daily job at 10:00 a.m. on November 1, the next instance of this
job will run at 10:00 a.m. on November 2 only if the earlier instance of the November 1 job has
completed.
If the 10.00 a.m. November 1 job has not completed before 10:00 a.m. November 2, the next job will
start only at 10:00 a.m. on November 3.
Date You can select the date and time (hours and minutes) to schedule.
Job Information

You cannot change this description.
E-mail Enter e-mail addresses to which the job sends messages at the beginning and at the end of the job.

completes, an e-mail is sent with the CiscoWorks E-mail ID as the sender's address.
