SupportAssist Enterprise Version 1.0 User's Guide
Customizing the schedule for periodic collection of system information
Prerequisites
- You must be logged in to SupportAssist Enterprise with elevated or administrative privileges. See SupportAssist Enterprise user groups and Granting elevated or administrative privileges to users.
- Ensure that the On a regular schedule as specified in Collection Schedules option is selected in the Preferences page.
About this task
NOTE: The performance
of the server where SupportAssist Enterprise is installed may be affected when
running periodic collections on a large number of devices.
Therefore, Dell recommends that you schedule the periodic collection
during off-peak hours.
Steps
- Point to Settings and click Collection Schedules.
The Collection Schedules page is displayed.
- From the Device Type list, select a device type for which you want to configure the periodic collection schedule.
- From the Recurs Every list, select the frequency of collection.
NOTE: If you want to disable the periodic collection for the selected device type, from the Recurs Every list, select None.
- In the Specify day and time fields, select an appropriate schedule.
- Repeat steps 2 to step 4 until you have scheduled the periodic collection of system information for all device types.
- Click Apply.
