Scheduler Terminology

The following terms are used in this chapter:

• Job—A job is a set of NX-OS CLI commands (EXEC and config mode) that are executed as defined in the schedule.

• Daily—The job is executed once a day.
• Weekly—The job is executed once a week.
• Monthly—The job is executed once a month.
• Delta—The job is executed beginning at the specified start time and thereafter at user-specified intervals (days:hours:minutes).
• One-time mode—The job is executed once at a user-specified time.
