Script include: CDSClientDownloadUtil
When scheduling a download job, the system reads this setting as a comma-separated list of UTC hours and uses those hours to choose a random start time, with some drift. If unset, it uses 7 and 23; this affects when the job runs, not what users see.

Script include: CustomerPushActionUtils
This setting supplies UTC peak-hour values used to choose a randomized start time for the download schedule, so changing it can shift when that job runs; it has no direct user-facing effect. If unset, the code uses 7 and 23.
