Subject: Link Scheduler Service Improvements
Summary:    

There are three Scheduler processes that can be used by LinkSOFT:

  1. SQL Server Agent
  2. Link Process - Windows Service
  3. Link WEB - Application Pool Based service

The current design required that only one service should run at one time, however, we have encountered scenarios here clients have started multiple services causing alerts to be sent out multiple times.

We need a mechanism to prevent this.

1. The following changes were made(Include Database object names, Program classes and any other relevant information):

  1. Removed Windows Service configuration for the scheduler from app.config
  2. Removed WEB.CONFIG settings for the scheduler
  3. Added new "Global System ~> Process Maintenance" Menu which allows the user to enable Schedule Agents and set the Frequency and Operating windows
  4. Added "Starting At" and "Ending At" fields, which can be used to define a maintenance window when the scheduler can be stopped

2. Affected Areas:

  1. Scheduler

  1. Improvement

4. Notes: If the "Process Maintenance" details are changed, the Scheduler needs to be restarted for the change to take effect. E.g. If the "Integration Scheduler" is enabled and the Windows Service Scheduler is used, the Windows Scheduler Service will need to be restarted.
