This topic describes the New Scheduled Job window: Options page.
If this option is selected, only target systems that are online at the time of execution will have the tasks performed on them when the scheduled tasks are executed. However, after all online target systems are marked as completed, the overall status for the execution of the job is changed to waiting for additional systems and the job will wait for the system to come back online to run. The overall status for the execution of job stays does not change to complete until all target systems have been placed in a completed or failed state. If this is a repeating job and there are target systems which have still not been run previously because they were offline, the overall status is changed to incomplete and a new execution is created when the scheduled repeat time occurs.
If this option is not selected, only target systems that are online at the time of execution will have the tasks performed on them when the scheduled task is executed. Any target system that is offline at the time the tasks are executed is assigned a status of unavailable. When all systems have been marked with a completed or unavailable status, the overall status for the execution of the job is changed from in progress to complete.
If this option is not selected, the scheduled tasks are performed on all systems that are part of the target group at the time of execution. Any systems that join the group later will not have the scheduled job performed on them.
If this option is enabled, any new systems added to the target group will be detected and the scheduled tasks will be executed. Selecting this optioncauses execution for a one-time job to have a status of waiting for additional systems until you explicitly cancel it. This option is selectable only if the target is a group of systems, not a single system, which you selected on the Targets tab.
If this is a repeating scheduled task, the next time the task is executed, any systems which have joined the target group since the last execution will then be included in the target group. Any systems that have been deleted from the target group since the last execution will not be included.
If this is a repeating scheduled task, the execution has a status of waiting for additional systems, until the next scheduled execution.
If a scheduled job is executing against a target group and a new system joins that group during the job's execution, this system will be added to the execution and will appear in the schedule log with the other systems.
