Scheduling TIBCO EMS tasks


To schedule a TIBCO EMS task:

  1. In the Summary View, click on the relevant object name.
  2. Select the Schedule option (the yellow calendar icon in the toolbar above the displayed properties).
  3. In the displayed dialog, set the relevant parameters:
    1. Start Time (defaults to 30 minutes past the current time).
    2. Set a Start Date. This may be today's date or one or more days from now.
    3. Set a Repeat Count. This is the number of times to repeat the particular task (once scheduled). For example, setting this to 2 means the task will actually be executed three times (the initial execution, plus the two repeated executions). Note that a repeat interval of -1 can be set, to enforce an unlimited repetition and is supported for all schedulable tasks. To end the unlimited repetition, delete it from the list of Scheduled Tasks for the specific TIBCO EMS Server.
    4. Set the Repeat Interval, the number of seconds between task instances. Note that the Repeat Count must be greater than '1' for Repeat Interval configuration to be relevant.
    5. Enter an email address in the Email Notification to field. The specified email address(es) will receive notification on the scheduled task's success or failure. Note that multiple email addresses can be entered; each email should be separated by a semi-colon or space.
    6. Enter any additional comments in the Notes text box. These comments are included in the email notification and also appear in the properties of the scheduled task. It is recommended to enter a short note as large notes will stretch out the scheduled task ID row item in the UI.
  4. After you have set the required parameters, select Schedule to configure the task.
Warning

Note

The number of task instances and interval between instances is determined by the values that you set in Step 3. It is important to pay attention to the connection between these sub-steps if you set any task to run more than once.

Error

Once you configure a task, it appears in the Scheduled Tasks View for the same TIBCO EMS server, from where you can review or cancel the scheduled operation. See Viewing Scheduled Tasks for further information (relevant for both IBM MQ and TIBCO EMS).
