Application Scheduler allows an administrator to schedule the starting and stopping of applications that are installed on IBM® Business Process Manager. Use the Application Scheduler panel in the administrative console to control the scheduling of any installed application.
Additionally, you can generate scheduler entries during the migration of a WebSphere® InterChange Server repository that includes WebSphere InterChange Server scheduler entries. (See the topics on Migrating from WebSphere InterChange Server and the reposMigrate command). Use the Application Scheduler panel in the administrative console to administer these migrated scheduler entries as well.
In a stand-alone server environment, the Application Scheduler is automatically installed. When you create the stand-alone server profile, the Application Scheduler is installed and configured on that server.
In a Network Deployment environment, the Application Scheduler is automatically installed for every managed server and cluster member created; no additional action is needed.
In WebSphere InterChange
Server, an application that contained collaboration objects or connectors
could be started, paused, and stopped at the component level (that
is, a component could be stopped while the remainder of the application
was allowed to continue). In IBM Business Process Manager, scheduling
of events is provided through the Application Scheduler. The Application
Scheduler allows you to start and stop processes at the application
level.
