The value of PERIODIC_SCHEDULE follows the same format as the crontab file. Specify the variable value as a string of five fields enclosed in double quotation marks, with each field separated by a space:
"minutes hours day-of-month month day-of-week" |
Specifies start time in number of minutes (0-59) after the hour and the hour (0-23).
Specifies the day of the month when ASET should be run, with values from 1-31.
Specifies the month of the year when ASET should be run, with values from 1-12.
Specifies the day of the week when ASET should be run, with values from 0-6. Sunday is day 0.
The following rules apply when creating a periodic schedule for ASET:
You can specify a list of values, each delimited by a comma, for any field.
You can specify a value as a number, or you can specify the value as a range. A range is a pair of numbers that are joined by a hyphen. A range states that the ASET tasks should be executed for every time that is included in the range.
You can specify an asterisk (*) as the value of any field. An asterisk inclusively specifies all possible values of the field.
The default entry for the PERIODIC_SCHEDULE variable causes ASET to execute at 12:00 midnight every day:
PERIODIC_SCHEDULE=”0 0 * * *” |
