The Schedules page allows you to run workspaces at specific times in the future on a repeating or non-repeating basis.
A request to run a workspace at a scheduled time is called a task. Each entry in the Schedules table represents a scheduled task. When a task is completed, its entry is removed from the table when the page is refreshed.
From the Schedules page, you can:
- Adding a Scheduled Task
- Modifying a Scheduled Task
- Enable or Disable Scheduled Tasks
- Removing a Scheduled Task
The columns displayed in the Schedules table are:
Name - the user-defined name of the task
Category - the user-defined name of the general category or group to which the task belongs
Start Time - the time at which the task is scheduled to start
The time is displayed as Immediately or using the following syntax:
year/month/day hour:minute:second
End Time - the time at which the task is to end
The time is displayed as Immediately (if the task starts immediately and does not repeat), Never, or using the following syntax:
year/month/day hour:minute:second
Recurrence - the frequency with which the task is repeated
The frequency is displayed as Never, a cron expression, or using the following syntax:
interval*frequency
For example, HOUR*2 means every two hours, DAY*4 means every four days and WEEK*1 means every week.
Note: cron expressions display according to the time zone of the FME Server that is running the task. All other times display in your local time zone.
Workspace - the workspace that runs the request.
Status - the current status of the task
- Enabled (green checkmark): it will run at the next scheduled time.
- Disabled (red circle with x): the task has been paused.
Owner - The user who created the schedule owns it and has full permissions on it.
Share with Others(icon) - To share a schedule, click the Share with Others icon. Through sharing, you can grant levels of permissions on an item to other users. You can share an item if you own it, or if you are a user with Manage Security permissions, such as an administrator.
