Scheduling bulk maintenance for port and interface components using an XML file

To schedule bulk maintenance for port and interface components using an XML file:

1. Open an XML editor.

2. Create a file with the format:

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
   <!DOCTYPE ics_config SYSTEM "ics-config.dtd">
   <ics_config version="2">
    <maintconfig className = "Port" instanceName = "abc"
         startYear = "2009"
         startMonth = "7"
         startDay = "26"
         startHour= "10"
         startMinute= "00"
         endYear = "2009"
         endMonth = "7"
         endDay = "28"
         endHour= "16"
         endMinute = "00"
         systemName = "router1"/>
   </ics_config>
   

3. Save and close the file.

4. Upload the XML file to the server.
