SnapCreator 4.0p1 Scheduler

I previously used the Windows Task Scheduler to run my jobs.  I am trying out the new schdueler in version 4.0p1.  I have the same job that needs to run daily every day except on Sunday.  I have a weekly job that needs to run on just Sunday.  I do not see a way to pick multiple days for the same job.  Has anyone else run into this issue?  Am I missing something?

As you are creating a schedule within Snap Creator along with the option for daily, weekly, etc there is an option for cron.

This just uses a cron style command to support more advanced scheduling scenarios.

It works equally well in windows as it does in other operating systems as it is a function of the quartz scheduler used in Snap Creator.

Here is a screenshot of this function with a cron comand:

Sorry I didn't make this clear earlier

Hope this helps,

You could try using the cron option to schedule this.

Command examples can be found here: http://www.quartz-scheduler.org/documentation/quartz-1.x/tutorials/crontrigger

Cronmaker can help you to build a cron command as well: http://www.cronmaker.com/

Hope this helps,

Thanks. Also found this reference https://communities.netapp.com/thread/14443 which references this http://quartz-scheduler.org/documentation/quartz-2.2.x/tutorials/crontrigger and now I have my jobs scheduled for MON-SAT.
