Schedule ASET Execution: PERIODIC_SCHEDULE

When you start ASET, you can start it interactively, or use the -p option to request that the ASET tasks run at a scheduled time and period. You can run ASET periodically, at a time when system demand is light. For example, ASET consults PERIODIC_SCHEDULE to determine how frequently to execute the ASET tasks, and at what time to run them. For detailed instructions about setting up ASET to run periodically, see "How to Run ASET Periodically".

The format of PERIODIC_SCHEDULE follows the format of crontab entries. See crontab(1) for complete information.
