I want to only get stats from my network devices at specified times of the day 
for historical stats.  I dont want to use the "interval" setting of  Tivoli.

Meaning;

Say for example I only want data from   --  6am ,8am,  12pm , 6pm  

Thats it!!! But it must be at 6am , 8am, 12pm, and 6pm not every whatever amount
of hours.

How is this noramlly done.

I started writing a script to run from cron that starts the daemon
at the times above then kill the daemon after I think it should be finished.

Even when you run the daemon manually it knows the last time it collected data
so my theory of setting the "interval" to 3h then trying to force a collection
did not work.  
Maybe there is a cahce file I could delete our an entry in the database i could 
wack before I start the daemon. 
Hmmmn

There must be a better way!!!


Thanks...
