Guidelines

Announcement Support for this product will end on November 3, 2025. We recommend that you use PATROL for Linux, PATROL for AIX, or PATROL for Solaris to monitor operating systems.

Scheduling tasks

The PATROL Knowledge Module for UNIX and Linux schedules processes and establishes monitoring blackout periods in your environment through the SCHEDULER application.

Note

You can change settings in the BMC PATROL SCHEDULER application class using the BMC PATROL Operator Console. Set up access control lists (ACLs) to prevent users from making changes to SCHEDULER settings through a BMC PATROL Operator Console.

With this application class, you can

  • Write a script to perform a task or job and then schedule that task to run at once or at regular intervals
  • Suspend monitoring of applications during routine maintenance or other activities that generate false alarms
