Next-Data-Time
Scheduling operates under the concept of data time, the time when a task starts
collecting data. For an on-time task schedule, the data time corresponds to the time
when a task is scheduled to start.
When you schedule a product, set the Next-Data-Time field for the product generator
to process only associated tasks with data times later than the next data time.
Skip
The Skip time breaks the day into equal intervals of time starting from midnight. A
product is generated, at most, once for each skip time interval. The first occurrence of
data from the associated task is used for each interval.
Request
Schedules a product according to whether the schedule aects All, Next occurrences
of the product. You can also stop the product's schedule.
Status
Shows the current status of each product as Running (product is being generated) or
Wait (product is waiting for either the associated task to run, for its turn to run
pending the completion of other products, or the product is not scheduled to run).
After a product is generated, the status changes from Running to Wait.
When the Master Schedule is displayed, Status shows the status of the site which is
either currently running or ran most recently.
Runs
A counter (000 to 999) showing how many times the product has run since it was
loaded in the menu.
If the number of runs exceeds 999, the counter restarts at 000.
If you stop a product, the counter is not reset. The counter resets if you delete a
product and reload it into the schedule. If you load a new schedule, the counters for all
products are reset.
When the Master Schedule is displayed, the Runs field reflects the total number of
runs for all sites that are scheduled.
