Set Schedule Modes

Select the central scheduling modes that determine how the clients communicate with the server.

Any The server allows clients to run in either the client-polling or the server-prompted scheduling mode. Each client must be configured to select the scheduling mode in which it operates. The default is Any.
Polling The server allows clients to run in the client-polling mode. Client nodes poll the server at prescribed time intervals to obtain scheduled work. If you select this mode, configure each client to use the client-polling mode.
Prompted The server allows clients to run in only the server-prompted mode. This mode is only available for clients that communicate with TCP/IP. Client nodes wait to be contacted by the server when scheduled work needs to be performed and a session is available. If you select this mode, configure each client to use the server-prompted mode.
