Schedule

Create recurring scans with cron, timezone, and Run now.

What it is for

Schedule lets you create recurring scan jobs: cron expression, timezone, intensity, optional agency linkage, enable/disable, edit, delete, and Run now.

When to use it

  • You want weekly or daily monitoring without starting each scan manually.
  • You need an immediate run from an existing schedule.

How to do it

  1. Step 1Open Schedule

    Go to Schedule in the Scan group.

  2. Step 2Create schedule

    Click Create schedule, fill target and timing fields (simple 5-part cron such as 0 7 * * 1), set intensity, then Save schedule.

  3. Step 3Manage the schedule

    Use Enable / Disable, Edit (Save changes), Delete, Run now, or Refresh as needed.

Good to know

  • After create, some fields such as target/plan (and intensity) may be immutable — recreate if you need different values.
  • Invalid cron shows: Expected a simple 5-part cron…
  • If the page shows the feature is not available yet, see Feature not available.

Common problems

  • I cannot change the target on edit.

    Create a new schedule with the correct target, then disable or delete the old one.
