Controlling the Timing of CCM Actions

You can create settings that apply globally for all computers and you can delay the start of CCM actions for each computer. You can also:

• Allow a user to postpone CCM actions

• Limit the number of active computers

• Delay copying procedures

NOTE: Changes you make to timing control settings using the Network Load Control tab of the Server Properties dialog box are visible only to the CCM Command Center making the changes. You must restart every other instance of the CCM Command Center accessing the same configuration server for those consoles to see the changed settings.

Global Time Control

You can set the times for CCM actions to occur. You do this by specifying action periods for CCM. In the action period, queued CCM actions are executed. No CCM actions can start outside of the action period.

Time control does not apply in the following cases:

• For computers with highest priority (0), time control is deactivated and all actions are always executed as soon as possible.

• All time control settings are automatically deactivated for the actions of the CCM Pre-OS Agent.
