[ @frequency_relative_interval = ] frequency_relative_interval

The date the Snapshot Agent runs. @frequency_relative_interval is int, with no default.

[ @frequency_recurrence_factor = ] frequency_recurrence_factor

The recurrence factor used by @frequency_type. @frequency_recurrence_factor is int, with no default.

[ @active_start_date = ] active_start_date

The date when the Snapshot Agent is first scheduled, formatted as yyyyMMdd. @active_start_date is int, with no default.

[ @active_end_date = ] active_end_date
