Strange. We have a nightly job that takes somewhere between 8 s and 50 min. We have configured it with SchedulePeriod = 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000.

Using 3.2.5, the job has started same time every night (01:00), and finishin within the hour, in good time before people arrive in the morning.

However, since upgrading to 3.2.7, the jobs have start "slipping", i e starting later and later. And, the slip is exactly the time the job took, i e starting at the last nights finish-time. If this is the intended behaviour, it feels strange.

I have exactly same problem, so after more then a year I want to ask, if there was any developement of this issue.

Thanks Petr

I'm sorry to say: nothing. Since my original posting we have, in hope, upgraded to 4.0.3SP1. However, it still works the same way.

Here's an workaround - you can programatically reschedule your schedulable mbean after you finish the nightly job:

private void reschedule() {
 try {
 ObjectName scheduler = new ObjectName("hr.chipoteka.erp.nightly-tasks:service=Scheduler");
 MBeanServer server = (MBeanServer) MBeanServerFactory.findMBeanServer(null).get(0);
 server.invoke(scheduler, "restartSchedule", new Object[0], new String[0]);
 } catch (Exception e) {
 // log the failure or whatever
 }
}

Of course, replace hr.chipoteka.erp.nightly-tasks:service=Scheduler with your schedulable mbean's name.

Does this scheduling activity deals anything with configuration of scheduler-service.xml , and can anyone get me the file structure of the sar/jar or whatever,like where the jboss-service.xml ll come n where the mbean, etc,etc.....

Thanks a lot in advance.....

I have 7 schedulers running on my jboss 4.0.4 server. The problem is that they dont seem to be running concurrently. For example if one scheduler starts at 9 am, the second is scheduled to start at 9:05 but if the first one doesnt complete in 5 minutes the second scheduler doesnt start at all.

Is there a solution for this problem.I have diferent schedulable classes which have implemented the schedulable interface.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

It seems I was wrong the first time my second scheduler doesnt seem to be running at all. The scheduler mentioned first in the scheduler-service.xml is only picked up and the other ones are just ignored by it I dont understand what is the problem
