5.3.12 Creating Scheduled Tasks
You can use the XStack Storage management console to set up tasks that you want the Storage
Controller to perform, such as performing parity or media scans. When you create a task, you can
specify the day and time when the task is to be performed and whether the task will repeat
(recur). As you create scheduled tasks, record the information in
Table D-7 on page 174.
To create scheduled tasks, use the following procedure.
1. On the View menu, click Create Task. The Scheduled Task Wizard launches and the Volume
and Operation screen appears (see
Figure 5-45).
