To configure a project schedule:
-
On the
Projects page (), click a project for which you want to edit the schedule.
-
On the
Monitors tab (), click the
Project Schedules: Clientside link to adjust the schedule of the project's client-side monitors.
-
On the
Configure Schedule page, specify a
From time (month, day, year, hour, minute, second, AM/PM) when the project's monitors should begin to run.
-
Specify the
Interval (day, hour, minute) at which the project's monitors should execute.
Note: When monitors are comprised of multiple transactions, transactions are executed in quick succession. Individual transactions
can't be scheduled independently within monitors. Ensure that the execution interval you select provides adequate time for
the monitor's transactions to execute (for example, a monitor that requires 90 seconds to complete its transactions, can not
be executed at 60 second intervals).
-
Specify how long the project's monitors are to
Run (forever, a specific number of times, or until a specific date).
-
In the
Run From list, select at least one location from which the project's monitors are to be executed. Note that monitors can be run simultaneously
from multiple locations. Use the
Ctrl key to select multiple locations.
-
Select a
Cascaded Delay. This setting avoids that a monitor is started simultaneously across all locations to avoid workload peaks on the system
under test. Example: Setting the cascaded delay to 5 seconds for a monitor that is scheduled to run at 5:00 AM results in
the monitor to run on the first location at 5:00:00 AM, on the second location at 5:00:05, and on the third location at 5:00:10.
Note: If the duration of the cascaded runs exceeds the execution interval, the skipped monitor execution will not be executed.
-
Click
Save to return to the
Monitors tab. Alternatively, you may advance to the
Add Exclusions page to add exclusions. See
Schedule Exclusions for details regarding exclusions.
