Overview of Scheduling
You can schedule various operations for the APSolute Vision server and managed devices. Scheduled operations
are called tasks.
are called tasks.
The APSolute Vision scheduler tracks when tasks were last performed and when they are due to be performed
next. When you configure a task for multiple devices, the task runs on each device sequentially. After the task
completes on one device, it begins on the next. If the task fails to complete on a device, the Scheduler will

Caution:
If the APSolute Vision client timezone differs from the timezone of the APSolute Vision server or the
managed device, take the time offset into consideration.
When you define a task, you can choose whether to enable or disable the task. All configured tasks are stored in
the APSolute Vision database.
