Setting Randomize Percentage
To specify the degree to which start times are randomized
within the startup window of each schedule for clients using the
client-polling mode, first complete the following field and then
click Finish, or click Cancel
to end the task.
Schedule Randomization Percentage
Enter a number from 0 to 50 that gives the percentage of the
startup window over which the start times for individual clients
are distributed.
- The default is 25.
- If you have specified Duration Units of INDEFINITE in the
DEFINE SCHEDULE panel, the percentage specified by Randomization
Percentage is regarded as a fraction of a one-day time
period. That is, if the value for Randomization
Percentage is 25, a schedule
with an indefinite window duration has start times
scattered over a 6-hour time range (24 multiplied by
0.25).
