It tends to be better to spread things out if you can then all your clients
don't hammer the database at the same time when they first start up.
I have a lot of big servers to backup and I tend to spread things out from
about 8pm til about 6am. To keep myself sane I name my schedules the time
they run and just directly associate the client with the time I want to have
it run:
adsm> q sched
Domain * Schedule Name Action Start Date/Time
Duration Period Day
