Scheduler Jobs
Scheduler job is a database object that assigns a specific task to a specific schedule.
To create a new scheduler job:
- select the Database | New Object... main menu item;
- select Scheduler Job in the Create New Object dialog;
- define scheduler job properties using the appropriate tabs of Scheduler Job Editor.
Hint: To create a new scheduler Job, you can also right-click the Scheduler Job node or any object within this node in the DB Explorer tree and select the Scheduler Job item from the context menu.
To create a new scheduler Job with the same properties as one of existing scheduler Job has:
- select the Database | Duplicate Object... main menu item;
- follow the instructions of Duplicate Object Wizard.
Alternatively, you can right-click a scheduler Job in the DB Explorer tree and select the Duplicate Scheduler Job <scheduler_job_name>... context menu item.
Duplicate Object Wizard allows you to select the database to create a new scheduler Job in, and to edit the result SQL statement for creating the scheduler Job.
To edit an existing scheduler Job:
- select the scheduler Job for editing in the DB Explorer tree (type the first letters of the scheduler Job name for quick search);
- right-click the object and select the Edit Scheduler Job<scheduler_job_name> context menu item, or simply double-click the scheduler Job;
- edit scheduler Job properties using the appropriate tabs of Scheduler Job Editor.
To drop a scheduler Job:
- select the scheduler Job to drop in the DB Explorer tree;
- right-click the object and select the Drop Scheduler Job <scheduler_job_name>... context menu item;
- confirm dropping in the dialog window.
Note: If more convenient, you can also use the following shortcuts:
Ctrl+N to create a new scheduler Job;
Ctrl+O to edit the selected scheduler Job;
Shift+Del to drop the object from the database.
