Enable a Scheduled Data Sync
----------------------------

This procedure enables the scheduled data sync so that it executes regularly.  

.. note:: 
   
   Setting up a CUCM or CUC device in VOSS Automate:   
   
   * Creates a full pull data sync instance, which will perform the initial sync of all data from the device. 
     It is recommended that you manually run the full pull data sync only when necessary. See :ref:`manually_run_the_default_data_sync`

   * Creates a Change Notification Sync type (on the Data Sync page). Manually running the change notification sync is not supported.

   * Creates a scheduled data sync (disabled by default) to execute a data sync every 14 days. This topic 
     describes how to enable this regular sync. 



.. rubric:: Enable the scheduled data sync

1. Log in as provider administrator.
#. Go to (default menus) **Administration Tools > Scheduling**. 
#. On the **Scheduling** page, choose the schedule instance that matches this naming convention:

   HcsSync-<ip_address>-<device_name>-SCHED. For example:

   HcsSync-192.0.2.24-CUCM01-SCHED
#. Select the **Active** check box.
#. Select the **Multiple Executions** tab, and update the interval, as required.
#. Click **Save**.

   The full data sync executes immediately, and executes again according to the schedule.
