Use dsconfig to create one or more tasks and then add them to a task chain for scheduling.
-
To create a task, use dsconfig create-recurring-task.
The following creates a backup task.
$ bin/dsconfig create-recurring-task \ --task-name backup-1 \ --type backup \ --set 'email-on-failure:admin1@company.com' \ --set 'email-on-failure:admin2@company.com' \ --set compress:true \ --set encrypt:true \ --set "retain-previous-full-backup-age:4 w" \ --set retain-previous-full-backup-count:10
-
To create a task chain to schedule and run recurring tasks, use dsconfig
create-recurring-task-chain.
$ bin/dsconfig create-recurring-task-chain \ --chain-name "backup chain" \ --set recurring-task:backup-1 \ --set scheduled-date-selection-type:selected-days-of-the-month \ --set scheduled-day-of-the-month:last-day-of-the-month \ --set scheduled-time-of-day:02:00
