Introduction

The following information provides examples for scheduling a task.

Prerequisites

This document applies to Comware 9-based routers. Procedures and information in the examples might be slightly different depending on the software or hardware version of the router.

The configuration examples in this document were created and verified in a lab environment, and all the devices were started with the factory default configuration. When you are working on a live network, make sure you understand the potential impact of every command on your network.

This document assumes that you have basic knowledge of task scheduling.

Example: Scheduling a task

Network configuration

As shown in Figure 1, GigabitEthernet 2/0/1 and GigabitEthernet 2/0/2 on the router are each connected to a host.

Configure the router to perform the following operations:

·     Enable GigabitEthernet 2/0/1 and GigabitEthernet 2/0/2 at 8:00 a.m. every Monday through Friday.

·     Disable GigabitEthernet 2/0/1 and GigabitEthernet 2/0/2 at 18:00 every Monday through Friday.

Software versions used

This configuration example was created and verified on R9141P16 of the SR6608-M device.

Restrictions and guidelines

·     The command line specified by the command command must be a successfully executable command line on the device.

·     The command line specified by the command command cannot be telnet, ftp, ssh2, or monitor process.

·     Before configuring a schedule task, check if the system time is correct. If the system time is incorrect, configure NTP or execute the clock command to ensure that the device gets the accurate time.

Procedures

1.     Configure a job to disable GigabitEthernet 2/0/1.

# Create a job named shutdown-GigabitEthernet 2/0/1 and enter job view.

[Router] scheduler job shutdown-GigabitEthernet2/0/1

# Assign a command to the job to enter system view.

[Router-job-shutdown-GigabitEthernet2/0/1] command 1 system-view

# Assign a command to the job to enter GigabitEthernet 2/0/1 interface view.

[Router-job-shutdown-GigabitEthernet2/0/1] command 2 interface gigabitethernet 2/0/1

# Assign a command to the job to disable GigabitEthernet 2/0/1.

[Router-job-shutdown-GigabitEthernet2/0/1] command 3 shutdown

[Router-job-shutdown-GigabitEthernet2/0/1] quit

2.     Configure a job to disable GigabitEthernet 2/0/2.

# Create a job named shutdown-GigabitEthernet 2/0/2 and enter job view.

[Router] scheduler job shutdown-GigabitEthernet2/0/2

# Assign a command to the job to enter system view.

[Router-job-shutdown-GigabitEthernet2/0/2] command 1 system-view

# Assign a command to the job to enter GigabitEthernet 2/0/2 interface view.

[Router-job-shutdown-GigabitEthernet2/0/2] command 2 interface gigabitethernet 2/0/2

# Assign a command to the job to disable GigabitEthernet 2/0/2 .

[Router-job-shutdown-GigabitEthernet2/0/2] command 3 shutdown

[Router-job-shutdown-GigabitEthernet2/0/2] quit

3.     Configure a job to enable GigabitEthernet 2/0/1.

# Create a job named start-GigabitEthernet 2/0/1 and enter job view.

[Router] scheduler job start-GigabitEthernet2/0/1

# Assign a command to the job to enter system view.

[Router-job-start-GigabitEthernet2/0/1] command 1 system-view

# Assign a command to the job to enter GigabitEthernet 2/0/1 interface view.

[Router-job-start-GigabitEthernet2/0/1] command 2 interface gigabitethernet 2/0/1

# Assign a command to the job to enable GigabitEthernet 2/0/1.

[Router-job-start-GigabitEthernet2/0/1] command 3 undo shutdown

[Router-job-start-GigabitEthernet2/0/1] quit

4.     Configure a job to enable GigabitEthernet 2/0/2.

# Create a job named start-GigabitEthernet 2/0/2 and enter job view.

[Router] scheduler job start-GigabitEthernet2/0/2

# Assign a command to the job to enter system view.

[Router-job-start-GigabitEthernet2/0/2] command 1 system-view

# Assign a command to the job to enter GigabitEthernet 2/0/2 interface view.

[Router-job-start-GigabitEthernet2/0/2] command 2 interface gigabitethernet 2/0/2

# Assign a command to the job to enable GigabitEthernet 2/0/2 .

[Router-job-start-GigabitEthernet2/0/2] command 3 undo shutdown

[Router-job-start-GigabitEthernet2/0/2] quit

5.     Configure a schedule to enable GigabitEthernet 2/0/1 and GigabitEthernet 2/0/2 at 8:00 a.m. every Monday through Friday.

# Create a schedule named connect-host1/host2 and enter schedule view.

[Router] scheduler schedule connect-host1/host2

# Assign the job named start-GigabitEthernet 2/0/1 to the schedule.

[Router-schedule-connect-host1/host2] job start-GigabitEthernet2/0/1

# Assign the job named start-GigabitEthernet 2/0/2 to the schedule.

[Router-schedule-connect-host1/host2] job start-GigabitEthernet2/0/2

# Configure the device to execute the schedule at 8:00 a.m. every Monday through Friday.

[Router-schedule-connect-host1/host2] time repeating at 08:00 week-day Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri

[Router-schedule-connect-host1/host2] quit

6.     Configure a schedule to disable GigabitEthernet 2/0/1 and GigabitEthernet 2/0/2 at 18:00 every Monday through Friday.

# Create a schedule named unconnect-host1/host2 and enter schedule view.

[Router] scheduler schedule unconnect-host1/host2

# Assign the job named shutdown-GigabitEthernet 2/0/1 to the schedule.

[Router-schedule-unconnect-host1/host2] job shutdown-GigabitEthernet2/0/1

# Assign the job named shutdown-GigabitEthernet 2/0/2 to the schedule.

[Router-schedule-unconnect-host1/host2] job shutdown-GigabitEthernet2/0/2

# Configure the device to execute the schedule at 18:00 every Monday through Friday.

[Router-schedule-unconnect-host1/host2] time repeating at 18:00 week-day Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri

[Router-schedule-unconnect-host1/host2] quit
