Chapter 6 Scheduling Historical Reports
Scheduling Recommendations
Scheduling Recommendations
When a scheduled report generates, it can use significant resources on the Cisco UCE server. To help
keep the server running most efficiently, schedule reports to generate at times when the Cisco UCE
server is least busy, for example, late at night or early in the morning.
The Scheduler
The Cisco UCE Historical Reporting Client includes a program called the Scheduler. The Scheduler
resides on each client computer and performs the following functions:
• Maintains information about each schedule, including when each schedule should execute and what
information the scheduled report should contain. The next run time information is based on the
frequency or recurrence of each job and is stored in the NextRunTime field of the Scheduler
database.
Table 6-1 Scheduled Historical Reports: Descriptions
Schedule Type Recurrence Options Information Contained in the Report
Daily
• Every day (Sunday to Saturday)
• Every weekday (Monday to Friday)
• Every n days (for example, every 3 days)
Note A report that is scheduled to recur every
weekday runs every Tuesday to
Saturday so that it can include
information for Monday to Friday.
A daily report always contains data from 12:00
midnight (0000) to 11:59:59 p.m. (1159:59) for the day
before the report runs. For example, a daily report that
runs on Tuesday contains data for the preceding
Monday.
Weekly
• Every week on a certain day (for example,
every Monday)
• Every n weeks on a specific day (for
example, every two weeks on Friday)
A weekly report always contains data from Sunday at
12:00 midnight (0000) to Saturday at 11:59:59 p.m.
(1159:59) for the week before the report runs,
regardless of the day of the week on which the report
runs. For example, a weekly report that runs on
Monday, on Wednesday, or on Friday contains data for
Sunday to Saturday of the previous week.
Monthly
• Every month on a specific date (for
example, the 15th of every month)
• Every month on a certain day (for example,
the first Friday of every month)
Note If a monthly report is scheduled to run
on a date that does not occur in some
months, for example the 30th or 31st,
the report runs on the last day of a month
that does not contain the date.
A monthly report always contains data from the first
day of the previous month at 12:00 midnight (0000) to
the last day of the previous month at 11:59:59 p.m.
(1159:59). For example, a monthly report that runs on
any day in February contains data for all of January.
Once Any single date and time that you specify A report that runs once contains data for the date and
time range that you specify.
