Recurring Actions
The section allows you to manage recurring actions on the selected client. You can schedule an arbitrary set of Salt states or the highstate to be executed at desired intervals. This is only available for Salt clients.
For more information about Salt states, see Salt States and Pillars.
Currently, SUSE Manager supports the following action types as recurring actions:
-
Highstate:Execute the highstate. -
Custom state:Execute a set of custom states. A custom state can be either an internal state provided by SUSE Manager, or a configuration channel created by a user.
For more information about configuration channels, see Configuration Management.
