1-22Scheduling an NQA Test GroupWith this configuration, you can set the start time and test duration for a test group to perform NQA tests.The start time can take a specific value or can be now, which indicates that a test is started immediately;the test duration can take a specific value or can be forever, which indicates that a test will not stop untilyou use the undo nqa schedule command to stop the test.A test group performs tests when the system time is between the start time and the end time (the starttime plus test duration). If the system time is behind the start time when you execute the nqa schedulecommand, a test is started when the system time reaches the start time; if the system time is betweenthe start time and the end time, a test is started at once; if the system time is ahead of the end time, notest is started. You can use the display clock command to view the current system time.Configuration prerequisitesBefore scheduling an NQA test group, make sure:z Required test parameters corresponding to a test type have been configured;z For the test which needs the cooperation with the NQA server, configuration on the NQA serverhas been completed.Scheduling an NQA test groupFollow these steps to schedule an NQA test group:To do… Use the command… RemarksEnter system view system-view —Schedule an NQA test groupnqa schedule admin-name operation-tagstart-time { hh:mm:ss [ yyyy/mm/dd ] |now } lifetime { lifetime | forever }RequiredConfigure the maximumnumber of the tests that theNQA client can simultaneouslyperformnqa agent max-concurrent number Optional2 by default.z After an NQA test group is scheduled, you cannot enter the test group view or test type view.z A started test group or a test group that has completed tests will not be influenced by the systemtime change; only a test group that is waiting to perform tests will be influenced by the system timechange.
