• Change the schedule without modifying any scripts or cron tables. When the scheduled operation is included in a script or cron table, you can use ASMCLI to change the options to the create smart-copy command without making other changes (see Creating a Smart Copy). • Locate Smart Copies created by a given schedule by specifying the --schedule option with the list smart-copy command (see Listing Schedules) • Limit the number of Smart Copies kept for a schedule using the --keep option. For example, if you specify --keep 12, then only 12 Smart Copies are saved for that schedule. If 12 Smart Copies exist for that schedule and if the schedule is used to create a new Smart Copy, then the oldest Smart Copy that is not logged in or mounted is deleted (see Running a Schedule). • Modify an existing schedule by adding or replacing an option (see Updating a Schedule) • Delete a schedule (see Deleting a Schedule) Creating a Schedule Use the asmcli create schedule command to create a Smart Copy schedule by providing a name and list of one or more mount points.
