Settings for OS with the Upstart initialization systemThe Prognoz Platform 9 task scheduler can be automatically started on Windows OS startup without logging in the system. The task scheduler can be installed to any local network server as a Windows OS service.
A Windows OS service is an application that automatically runs at Windows startup without a user being logged into the system.
To create a task scheduler service, enter the command line mode and run the following command:
sc.exe create PPScheduler binpath= "C:\Program Files\Foresight\Prognoz Platform 9\Scheduler.exe" start= auto
Where:
PPScheduler. Task scheduler service name. Task scheduler service name can be changed.
binpath. Full path to the Scheduler.exe file.
start= auto. Type of application start: an application which is automatically started whenever the system is reset even if no user has logged in.
NOTE. If there is no space between the parameter (binpath or start) and its value, for example, start=auto instead of start= auto, the operation fails.
The following message is shown if the command has been successfully executed: [SC] CreateService: success.
To start the created service, run the following command:
net start PPScheduler
The following message is shown if the command has been successfully executed: The PPScheduler service is successfully launched.
To delete a task scheduler service, run the following command:
sc.exe delete PPScheduler
The following message is shown if the command has been successfully executed: [SC] DeleateService: success.
The task scheduler can be started as a service using init script for initialization system.
