The APSolute Vision scheduler tracks when tasks were last performed and when they are due to be
performed next. When you configure a task for multiple devices, the task runs on each device
sequentially. After the task completes on one device, it begins on the next. If the task fails to
complete on a device, the Scheduler will activate the task on the next listed device.
Scheduled tasks run according to the time as configured on the APSolute Vision client.
Caution:
If the APSolute Vision client time zone differs from the time zone of the APSolute
Vision server or the managed device, take the time offset into consideration.
When you define a task, you can choose whether to enable or disable the task. All configured tasks
are stored in the APSolute Vision database.
You can define the following types of DefensePro-related scheduled tasks:
•
Back up a device configuration
•
Reboot a device
•
Update the Radware signature file onto a DefensePro device from Radware.com or the proxy
server
•
Update RSA signature file onto a DefensePro device from Radware.com or the proxy server
Note:
You can perform the operations manually, from the Monitoring perspective.
