Managing and monitoring scheduled tasks |
||
Scheduled task settings may be modified at any time*. You can also temporarily disable a scheduled task by unchecking the box next to its name in the "Scheduled Tasks" list. To delete a task altogether, simply select the task in the "Scheduled Tasks" list and click the "-" button or press the delete key. If the task is running when you save modified settings or delete the task, the scheduled task itself will prompt for verification that you intend to end the running task. Choosing to not end the running task will not prevent the settings from being saved, but it will prevent the settings from taking effect. The new settings will take effect the next time you restart your computer or when you modify another setting and re-save them.
If you would like to run a scheduled task immediately, select the task in the "Scheduled Tasks" list and click on the Run button.
In addition to feedback provided in the interface, CCC records some information about your scheduled task in a log file. While the contents of this log file are generally intended for communication of problems to the developer, end users may find some of the information in this log helpful. CCC's log file is located at /Library/Logs/CCC.log. You can view the contents of this log by selecting "CCC Log" from CCC's Window menu.

* Can I modify the source/target/cloning options specified in the scheduled task?
The configurations available in the Scheduler window can be configured at any time. You cannot, however, modify the task configuration (e.g. the source and target volumes specified, cloning options, selected items to be copied, etc.) — yet. If you would like to make changes to the task configuration, delete the current scheduled task, then create a new task with different settings applied in the main window of CCC. Modification of scheduled task configuration is planned for a future release of CCC.
