To force the dispatcher to start a Plan at a specific time, include a TimeRange element in the Request and set its Earliest and Latest child elements to identical date/time values. This will cause the "fixed-time" flag to be set for the Plan. Fixed-time plans are always started before any other plans, and are thus guaranteed to run. Observations belonging to fixed-time plans may preempt those belonging to other Observations of Plans started before a fixed-time plan is added.
The Request.TimeRange has a special feature for time-critical plans submitted by the VOEvent Receiver. If both the Earliest and Latest are set to 0001-01-01T00:00:00 the plan will be started immediately.
