Rescheduling

These properties control if and how a job uses time based rescheduling methods. When a job automatically starts as the result of having a start time set, the next start time is calculated based on the rescheduling algorithm specified with this job.

There are five settings possible:

No Rescheduling

This means that this job will not reschedule on its own. It can still be initiated by other jobs and can also be submitted by a manual submit request.

Named Day Rescheduling

This means that this job will run on the days indicated (such as Friday, Monday etc). At the time of day provided.

Interval Rescheduling

This means that this job will run periodically. The time between runs is provided.

Marked Calendar Rescheduling

This means that this job will run on the days marked on the specified calendar. A mark is just a letter (A..Z) or digit (0..9). These marks are placed on the calendar by viewing its property page. See Scheduling with Calendars for more on using the calendar to reschedule a job.

Monthly Rescheduling

This means the job will be scheduled to run on a specific day of the month on all or selected months. For instance the first Tuesday of the month or the last Friday of the month.

Every job that is rescheduled must have a calendar to examine. The calendar determines which days are skipped. Such things as do not run on holidays, what days are holidays, do not run on weekends, slide suppressed runs forward to the next available day or skip suppressed runs are all part of the calendar definition. To view or change these settings examine the calendar's property page.
