Expansion of available mover frequencies

[DiscoverIt]

At present the mover cannot be programmed for a custom frequency or the ability to disable. Would like to propose the addition of Disabled & Custom entries with custom displaying a text box for a manual crontab entry.

Look in the community apps, there is a mover tuning plugin that allows customization of the mover per share. It even lets you set a threshold for size of files to be moved etc.

This does not allow disabling or setting custom cron for the mover? Say i wanted to run every 10th day, or bi-monthly, or not at all.

Mover tuning set to "Disable Mover running on a schedule = Yes" will put mover into manual trigger only mode.
Then you can script when you want it to run, e,g, using user scripts plugin... mover is run from cli using "mover" command.

Thanks. Will keep this FR open as I prefer a built in scenario adding these two little options instead of relying on two plugins.
