NSR_SCHEDULE(5)             Legato NetWorker 4.0             NSR_SCHEDULE(5)


NAME
       NSR schedule - NetWorker resource type ``NSR schedule''

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 nsradmin(8) for more information on using the NetWorker adminis­
       tration 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.  Several additional hidden attributes (e.g., administrator) are
       common to all resources, and are described in nsrresource(5).

       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 whitespace, i.e., blanks or
              tabs.  The valid levels are `full', `incr', `skip', and the
              numbers 1 through 9.  The actions full, incr and skip may be
              abbreviated `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 overrid­
              ing the actions specified in the action attribute.  The format

              of the override specification is action date.  action must be
              one of `full', `incr', `skip' or one of the numbers 1 through
              9.  date must of of the form `month/day/year'.  Action/date
              pairs are separated by commas (`,').
              Example: override:  full 1/1/1994, full 6/1/1994;

EXAMPLE
       The following defines a NSR schedule resource named `Default'.  The
       Default schedule may be modified, but it may not be deleted.  Each
       NetWorker server must have a Default schedule.  This schedule has a
       period of one week, does a full on Sunday, followed by 6 incremental
       saves.  There are no override actions specified.

                  type: NSR schedule;
                  name: Default;
                period: Week;
                action: f i i i i i i;
              override: ;

       The following defines a schedule named `quarterly'.  It has a period
       of one month.  The action attribute specifies level 5, 9, and incre­
       mental saves.  In the override attribute, full saves are specified
       for the first day of each quarter.  Note that there are only 7
       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.

                  type: NSR schedule;
                  name: quarterly;
                period: Month;
                action: 5 incr incr incr 9 incr incr;
              override: f 1/1/1994, f 3/1/1994, f 6/1/1994, f 9/1/1994, f 1/1/1995;
