Scheduling polling of the output queue

You must schedule the interval at which the Archiver application polls the output queue for documents ready for archiving. You can set a single time interval, or create more complex schedules.

If you specify a stop time (or end time), all ongoing archiving tasks will continue until the they are finished, even if the stop time is passed.

If a new task is scheduled to start before an on-going task has completed, the application first finalizes the ongoing task before the new task is started.

To open the Scheduler Configuration dialog box

1	Right-click the Archiver application and select Configuration. The Configuration dialog box opens.

2	If no archiving tasks are configured, select the (Item list) field and click the button to the right of the field. The Service Configuration dialog box opens.

Note:

You can edit schedules for already existing tasks directly in the Configuration dialog box.

3	Create a new task.

4	Select the Schedule field and click the button to the right of the field. The Scheduler Configuration dialog box opens. See Scheduler Configuration dialog box.

To add an interval

1	In the Scheduler Configuration dialog box, click New (Intervals area). A new item is added to the list.

2	In Define Interval, select a unit and enter the value.

To set a time frame for a specific interval

1	Select the interval.

2	Click New (Apply selected interval area). A new item is added to the area.

3	Select a unit (Year, Month, etc.) for the item and enter a Start and, optionally, an End value for the time frame.

To set a time frame for all intervals

You can set a time frame for when to apply all intervals in the list. In the Apply all intervals area, use Date and Time for Start and Stop to set the frame for all intervals.

Example 4

Schedule polling intervals

In this example, a schedule that causes the Archiver application to poll the output queue is configured. The action is triggered once every second Monday to Wednesday, and once every hour Thursday to Sunday is configured.
