Individual patterns are patterns with timings for power on/off and rebooting for the day defined only for specific days. For days on which power on/off and rebooting of server should be operated with other pattern than the standard or non-standard patterns, you can set individual patterns. Also, individual patterns can be used for power on/off and rebooting on holidays set in the SYSTEM_CALENDAR. Use the following procedure to set an individual pattern of the power schedule.

Note
Double-clicking a holiday resumes the standard pattern and it does not return to the previous pattern.

The holiday/individual is treated as a holiday for other functions than the power control function.
