The Tasks tab on the Schedule Job window is divided into two sections:
-
Task List with additional device information

Conflict Resolution

Commands can be inserted into any scheduled job (via the Command Editor), and executed before or after configlet or config tasks.

Commands help to validate the state of the device during job execution.
