Veritas NetBackup™ OpsCenter Administrator's Guide

About the scheduler

The scheduler performs three basic functions for the OpsCenter Agent:

  • Checks and queues the data collection schedules of all running data collectors.

  • Sends periodic heartbeat messages to the OpsCenter server to ensure the reliability of communications between the Agent and the Server.

  • Monitors modifications that are made to the Agent configuration using the OpsCenter console, which are stored on the OpsCenter Server.
