Configuration Examples for the Scheduler
Creating a Scheduler Job
This example shows how to create a scheduler job that saves the running configuration to a file in bootflash
and then copies the file from bootflash to a TFTP server (the filename is created using the current time stamp
and switch name):
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# scheduler job name backup-cfg
switch(config-job)# cli var name timestamp $(TIMESTAMP) ;copy running-config
bootflash:/$(SWITCHNAME)-cfg.$(timestamp) ;copy bootflash:/$(SWITCHNAME)-cfg.$(timestamp)
tftp://1.2.3.4/ vrf management
switch(config-job)# end
switch(config)#
Scheduling a Scheduler Job
This example shows how to schedule a scheduler job called backup-cfg to run daily at 1 a.m.:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# scheduler schedule name daily
switch(config-schedule)# job name backup-cfg
switch(config-schedule)# time daily 1:00
switch(config-schedule)# end
switch(config)#
