On the Configure task schedule wizard page, you can create a schedule for task start. If necessary, specify the following settings:
Select the schedule according to which the task runs, and configure the selected schedule.
The task runs regularly, with the specified interval in hours, starting from the specified date and time.
By default, the task runs every 6 hours, starting from the current system date and time.
The task runs regularly, with the specified interval in days. Additionally, you can specify a date and time of the first task run. These additional options become available, if they are supported by the application for which you create the task.
By default, the task runs every day, starting from the current system date and time.
The task runs regularly, with the specified interval in weeks, on the specified day of week and at the specified time.
By default, the task runs every Monday at the current system time.
The task runs regularly, with the specified interval in minutes, starting from the specified time on the day that the task is created.
By default, the task runs every 30 minutes, starting from the current system time.
The task runs regularly, with the specified interval in days. This schedule does not support observance of daylight saving time (DST). It means that when clocks jump one hour forward or backward at the beginning or ending of DST, the actual task start time does not change.
We do not recommend that you use this schedule. It is needed for backward compatibility of Kaspersky Security Center.
By default, the task starts every day at the current system time.
The task runs every week on the specified day and at the specified time.
The task runs regularly, on the specified days of the week, at the specified time.
By default, the task runs every Friday at 6:00:00 PM.
The task runs regularly, on the specified day of the month, at the specified time.
In months that lack the specified day, the task runs on the last day.
By default, the task runs on the first day of each month, at the current system time.
The task does not run automatically. You can only start it manually.
By default, this option is selected.
The task runs once, on the specified date and time.
The task runs regularly, on the specified days of each month, at the specified time.
By default, no days of month are selected. The default start time is 18:00.
The task runs after a Virus outbreak event occurs. Select application types that will monitor virus outbreaks. The following application types are available:
By default, all application types are selected.
You may want to run different tasks depending on the security application type that reports a virus outbreak. In this case, remove the selection of the application types that you do not need.
The current task starts after another task completes. This option only works if both tasks are assigned to the same devices. For example, you may want to run the Manage devices task with the Turn on the device option and, after it completes, run the Virus scan task as a triggering task.
You have to select the triggering task from the table and the status with which this task must complete (Completed successfully or Failed).
If necessary, you can search, sort, and filter the tasks in the table as follows:
By default, the tasks are sorted in alphabetical ascending order.
This option determines the behavior of a task if a client device is not visible on the network when the task is about to start.
If this option is enabled, the system attempts to start the task the next time the Kaspersky application is run on the client device. If the task schedule is Manually, Once or Immediately, the task is started immediately after the device becomes visible on the network or immediately after the device is included in the task scope.
If this option is disabled, only scheduled tasks run on client devices. For Manually, Once and Immediately schedule, tasks run only on those client devices that are visible on the network. For example, you may want to disable this option for a resource-consuming task that you want to run only outside of business hours.
By default, this option is disabled.
If this option is enabled, the task is started on client devices randomly within a specified time interval, that is, distributed task start. A distributed task start helps to avoid a large number of simultaneous requests by client devices to the Administration Server when a scheduled task is running.
The distributed start time is calculated automatically when a task is created, depending on the number of client devices to which the task is assigned. Later, the task is always started on the calculated start time. However, when task settings are edited or the task is started manually, the calculated value of the task start time changes.
If this option is disabled, the task starts on client devices according to the schedule.
If this option is enabled, the task is started on client devices randomly within the specified time interval. A distributed task start helps to avoid a large number of simultaneous requests by client devices to the Administration Server when a scheduled task is running.
If this option is disabled, the task starts on client devices according to the schedule.
By default, this option is disabled. The default time interval is one minute.
