Defining Properties for Single-Instance Schedules

Instance properties let you pass named values into a schedule at build time. For a single-instance schedule, you define one set of PropertyName=PropertyValue pairs that OpCon resolves when the schedule runs.

Define properties for a single-instance schedule

To define properties for a single-instance schedule, complete the following steps:

1. In Enterprise Manager, select Schedule Master under the Administration topic. The Schedule Master screen opens.
2. Select the schedule in the Schedule Selection list.
3. Select the Schedule tab in the Schedule Details frame.
4. Clear the Multi-Instance option if it is selected.
5. Select the Instance Definition tab in the Schedule Details frame.
6. In the Define Property Values field, type one or more property definitions using the format PropertyName=PropertyValue. Separate multiple definitions with a semicolon (;), for example: PropertyName1=PropertyValue1;PropertyName2=PropertyValue2.
7. Select Add. The property definition appears in the Instances list.
8. Select Save on the Schedule Master toolbar to save the property definitions.
9. Select Close to close the Schedule Master screen.

Result: The property definitions are saved to the schedule. OpCon substitutes the defined values when the schedule is built.

note

If the schedule has named instances defined, you cannot clear the Multi-Instance option until those instances are removed.
