NSR_SCHEDULE(5) Legato NetWorker 3.0 NSR_SCHEDULE(5)
NAME
NSR schedule - NetWorker resource type ``NSR client''
SYNOPSIS
type: NSR schedule
DESCRIPTION
Each NetWorker schedule is described by a single resource of type NSR
schedule (see nsrresource(5)). To edit the NSR schedule resources
for a NetWorker server type:
nsradmin -c "type:NSR schedule"
See the nsradmin(8) manual page for more information on using the
NetWorker administration program.
This resource describes a sequence of levels controlling the amount
of data saved by NetWorker clients. There is one NSR schedule
resource for each NetWorker schedule.
ATTRIBUTES
The following attributes are defined for resource type NSR schedule.
The information in parentheses describes how the attribute values are
accessed. Read-only indicates that the value cannot be changed by an
administrator. Read/write means the value can be set as well as
read.
name (read/write)
This attribute specifies the schedule's name. The schedule is
referred to by its name in client resources.
Example: name: monthlyfulls;
period (read-only)
This attribute specifies the length of the schedule's period.
It may be either "Week" or "Month". "Week" schedules repeat
every 7 days and start on Sunday, "Month" schedules start over
at the first of each month. The default is "Week".
Example: period: Month;
action (read/write)
This attribute specifies the sequence of save levels making up
the schedule. One entry is used for each day of the schedule.
The entries must be separated by white-space, i.e. blanks or
tabs. The valid levels are `full', `incr', `skip', and the
numbers 1 through 9. Only the first letter of full, incr and
skip is examined so they may be abbreviated by `f', `i', and
`s', respectively.
When the action attribute does not contain enough entries to
account for every day in the period, NetWorker will repeat the
list of actions when the end of the action list is reached.
Example: action: f i i i i i i;
override (read/write)
This attribute specifies a list of actions and dates overridĀ
ing the actions specified in the action attribute. The format

one of `full', `incr', `skip' or one of the numbers 1 through

pairs are separated by commas (`,').

entries in the action attribute. Upon reaching the end of the list,
NetWorker will start over at the beginning of the list, performing a
level 5 save.
