When a scheduled page executes, ColdFusion writes a message to a log file called schedule.log automatically. This file
identifies the name of the scheduled action, the page to be executed, and whether the task scheduled executed
successfully.You can pause and resume scheduled tasks.
Scheduled Task page
The Scheduled Task page lets you create, edit, pause, resume, and delete scheduled tasks. This page has the following
areas:
•
Application Level Scheduled Tasks:
Provides a list of application-specific tasks that you have scheduled, with task
details in tabular format.
The table provides details such as actions, application name, group, task name, duration, interval, last run, next run,
repeat count, and if cluster is enabled.
Note:
Application-specific tasks cannot be created using ColdFusion Administrator. But you can pause, resume, or
delete the tasks.
•
Server Level Scheduled Tasks:
Provides a list of server-specific tasks that you have scheduled, with task details in
tabular format.
The table provides new details such as group, next run, repeat count, if cluster is enabled, and the remaining task
count.
•
Enable Cluster Setup:
Applies if you have at least one data source configured. Specify the following details:
•
Select Data source:
All the data sources you have connected to are listed.
•
Create Tables for Cluster Setup:
Check to create scheduler-specific tables for cluster.
Note:
Enable this option only for one node in the cluster. Otherwise, the tables are overridden. If you have created
tables from one node, in other nodes you need to only select and choose the data source. All nodes will point to the
same data source and therefore will be part of the cluster.
•
After you specify the details, click Submit.
To disable cluster, select the option Disable Cluster.
