Creating a Schedule from the Server Manager Tab

Creating a Schedule from the Server Manager Tab

You can create a schedule for running the tasks that are defined on the
Server Manager
 tab >
Tasks
 view.
Within a schedule, you can include a particular task only once. Data Replication executes the task and ignores any additional occurrences of it in the schedule.
When you replicate data to multiple targets, the Applier, Send File, and InitialSync tasks contain multiple target processes, one for each target. Otherwise, a task contains a single target process.
You can create a schedule to run replication tasks with a particular configuration or to run tasks that do not require a configuration. You can create a schedule only for the configurations for which you are designated as the owner.
  1. On the
    Server Manager
     tab >
    Schedules
     view, click the
    New
     icon button on the Schedules toolbar.
    The
    New
     dialog box appears.
    New dialog box in the Schedules view on the Server Manager tab
  2. In the
    Schedule name
     field, enter a unique and descriptive name for the schedule.
    Schedule names can contain only the digits 0-9, Latin letters A-Z and a-z, and the underscore (_) character. The Data Replication Console truncates schedule names that are longer than 100 characters.
  3. In the
    Configuration
     list, select the configuration for the tasks that you are scheduling.
    Data Replication uses this information to generate a command to execute the tasks.
  4. In the
    Owner
     list, select a schedule owner.
  5. In the
    Keep logs for
     field, specify the number of days to retain the output logs from the scheduled Extractor, Applier, and other tasks.
  6. Select
    Enable schedule
     to activate the schedule.
  7. In the
    Run
     list, select the periodicity with which you want to run the scheduled tasks. Options are:
    • Periodically
      . Run the tasks periodically based on other settings such as the date and time at which a task starts and ends, the task run frequency, and days of the week.
    • On demand
      . Run the tasks one time.
    • Continuous
      . Perform continuous data replication. The tasks run continuously during the period that you specify in the
      Schedule starts
       and
      Schedule ends
       fields.
    Do not schedule an InitialSync task to run periodically or continuously.
  8. For a schedule that runs periodically, perform the following substeps:
    1. Specify the frequency of execution under
      Every
      .
      You can enter a number of seconds, minutes, hours, days, or weeks.
    2. In the
      Maximum consecutive failures
       field, specify the maximum number of consecutive times that a schedule can end with an error before the Server Manager disables the schedule.
      To allow an unlimited number of consecutive schedule failures, enter 0.
  9. In the
    Schedule starts
     and
    Schedule ends
     fields, define the period during which the schedule runs. Click in each field to display a control for setting the date.
    For continuous replication, you can define a very long period, up to December 31, 2037.
  10. Under
    Days of the week
    , select one or more days of the week when the tasks run.
  11. Under
    Runs daily from
    , define the start and end times for the schedule run.
  12. Under the
    Referenced Tasks
     box, click the
    New
     icon button to add a task reference to the schedule.
    The
    New Task
     dialog box appears.
    The New Task dialog box contains a list of available tasks and the Run with task dependencies check box.
  13. Select a previously defined task from the list.
    You can add tasks for which another user is the owner.
  14. Select
    Run with task dependencies
     if the task depends on another task.
  15. Click
    OK
    .
    The task appears in the
    Referenced Tasks
     box.
    You can click the
    Delete
     icon button to remove a task.
  16. Repeat steps 12 through 15 to add additional tasks to the schedule.
  17. Click
    OK
    .
    The schedule and its tasks appear in the
    Schedules
     view.
    The following image shows an example view:
    The Schedules view shows the running continuous schedule ora2ora_demo.
    If you observe Daylight Savings Time, restart the Server Manager after each time change to ensure that the Data Replication Console displays the accurate time.
    The schedule will run based on the scheduling options you set.
  18. If you want to start the schedule and run its tasks immediately, click the
    Start
     icon button on the Schedules toolbar, or right-click the schedule row and click
    Start
    .
    The
    Processes
     box shows the status of processes for the Extractor, Send File, Applier, and other tasks.
