If the daily schedule for a rule starts before the start date and time specified in the schedule. For example, assume the current time is 2013-07-26 16:20:00. If you specify the following schedule and associate it with a rule, the rule will not get scheduled at all. tmsh modify security firewall schedule sched1 {date-valid-start 2013-07-26:16:24:00 date-valid-end 2013-07-26:16:29:00 daily-hour-start 16:23 daily-hour-end 16:27 }
The scheduled rule will not become active when configured in this manner.
The daily-hour-start needs to be configured to occur before the date-valid-start.
As a workaround, make sure that date-valid-start is not before daily-hour-start. A working example, assuming the current time is 2013-07-26 16:20:00. Configure the date-valid-start to be the previous day: tmsh modify security firewall schedule sched1 {date-valid-start 2013-07-25:16:24:00 date-valid-end 2013-07-26:16:29:00 daily-hour-start 16:23 daily-hour-end 16:27 }
