Schedule properties for templates determine when a job should run when it is created using the template.

Run now and run according to rules for this template |
Runs the job immediately after a selection list is combined with the policy in which this template is contained. If the template is part of a template rule, the job also runs according to the template rule. If you select this option to change the schedule for an existing template in a policy, the existing associated jobs are not run immediately. This prevents you from inadvertently performing a run now operation on all jobs that were created when the policy was combined with selection lists. The jobs run only according to the rules for the template. |
Run according to schedule and run according to rules for this template |
Configures a schedule for a recurring job. Use the option to set the schedule.See Scheduling jobs. If the template is part of a template rule, the job also runs according to the template rule. |
Run only according to rules for this template |
Configures the job to run based on a template rule. For example, with the After <Template A> completes, start <Template B> template rule, <Template B> will run whenever <Template A> completes. |
Submit job on hold |
Submits the jobs that are created using this template with an on-hold status. You should select this option if you want to submit the job, but do not want it to run until you change the job’s hold status. |
