Configuring Scheduled Jobs
You can view completed, pending, and inactive jobs as well as jobs that were not completed because of an error in the Configure > Maintenance > Scheduled Jobs page. You can also delete a job, change its status, or modify its properties.
Jobs are commands that are scheduled to run at a time you specify.
You can use the Management Console to:
• schedule a software upgrade.
• generate multiple TCP dumps on a specific date and time.
To schedule all other jobs, you must use the Riverbed CLI.
For details on scheduling jobs using the CLI, see the Riverbed Command-Line Interface Reference Manual.
