CxAEJobScheduler

The CxAEJobScheduler API is a COM-enabled automation interface used to schedule script functions via CygNet and is encapsulated in CxAEJobScheduler.dll.

Running Jobs

See Job Runner for information on executing jobs.

Scheduling Jobs

Jobs can also be scheduled to run rather than being executed manually. A single schedule can reference one or many jobs. All reference jobs will be run on the schedule's defined recurrence pattern (e.g., every hour, every Monday, every third Thursday of the month, etc.).

Schedules should be managed exclusively through the API as the configuration in CygNet is complex. A schedule is stored in the MSS and in the HSS. The schedule details, such as the start date and recurrence pattern, are stored in an MSS Setpoint task. When that MSS task is triggered, it will set the value of a corresponding point in the HSS. That HSS point will trigger the related jobs.
