Adding a time period

To add a time period to a service schedule:

1.In the field on the left above the schedule grid, select the service schedule to which you want to add the time period.

2.Take one of these actions in the schedule grid:

oClick in the hour at which you want the time period to start. By default, this defines a two-hour time period. You can change the start and end times before saving the time period.

oClick and drag from one hour (the start time) to another (the end time) in the same day. You can change the start and end times before saving the time period.

oClick an existing time period.

oClick the name of a weekday. This defines a 24-hour time period for that day. When you save this time period, all other time periods that are scheduled for that day are deleted.

oClick All. This defines seven 24-hour time periods — one for each day of the week. When you save these time periods, all other time periods in the schedule are deleted.

An Edit window appears. For a time period other than a weekday or all, the top of this window shows the number of hours in the time period and the start and end times.

The Edit window lists the schedulable services. For each service, the window contains a Level field. The window also indicates the status of the service:

oService not scheduled — The service is not scheduled in the time period you’re editing or in any time period that overlaps the time period you’re editing. The performance level is Off.

oService scheduled — The service is scheduled in the time period you’re editing. The performance level is Low, Medium, or High.

oService already scheduled — The service is scheduled in a time period that overlaps the time period you’re editing. No performance level is shown.

oConflict with service-name service — The service cannot run at the same time as the named service, which is already scheduled to run in the time period you’re editing. No performance level is shown.

3.Optionally, for a time period other than a weekday or all, select a different start time in the From field.

4.Optionally, for a time period other than a weekday or all, select a different end time in the To field.

5.For each service you want to run during the time period, select a performance level of Low, Medium, or High in the Level field. At least one service must be scheduled to run in the time period.

For each service you don’t want to run during the time period, select Off.

6.Take either of these actions:

oIf you started by clicking the grid, dragging, clicking a weekday, or clicking All, click Update Schedule.

oIf you started by clicking an existing time period, click Create New Period. This creates a new time period only if you scheduled a service that was not scheduled in the original time period.
