Windows XP Pro - failure of the scheduled task?

Why my regular job failure?

Is there an example page on things to do and not do?

I have a backup program will not work correctly.

TY,

Bill

Hi Bill,

1. what exactly happens when you run the backup program?

If a scheduled task does not run when you expect it, right-click the task, and then click Properties. On the Task tab, make sure that the enabled check box is selected. On the tab schedule, check that planning is set correctly.

    Hello Steven,

    Did you ever receive notifications that a virus or malware has been removed from your system recently?
    My only thought is that it is the remains of an infection on your machine.
    It is most likely harmless, but I don't understand why you'd be concerned.
    Do you have any task scheduled to run at startup using Task Scheduler built into Windows?

    Hi Aurélie Rozier,.

    Click on the Start button and type "Calendar" in the search box. The option tasks planning must appear in the search list. Click (or double-click) on this option to launch scheduled tasks. When the window tasks planned opens leaves the Task Scheduler list fill out and then look to the bottom of this list for planning thye name, that you want to change. When you have found, right-click on it and choose Properties. In the Properties window, click the triggers tab and then click Edit at the bottom of the special editing window. You should be able to change the time from there.

  • SQLcl throws the Exception on start and stop operating within the scheduled task

    I'm on Windows Server 2012 R2 runs a script TakeCommand (jpsoft.com) as a task scheduled using SQLcl - 4.2.0.15.177.0246.

    The script is invoked, when the account (with administrative privileges) who runs the scheduled task is not connected to the machine.

    The scenario is as follows:

    • servers both windows ServerA and ServerB (virtual servers)
    • ServerA has a SAN connected directly (as E drive)
    • ServerB remotely accesses drive E on ServerA and maps in drive E (guest ServerB cmd > net use e: \\ServerA\e)
    • the problem occurs on server b.

    Corr 04/09/2015: the SAN is not the cause of the errors/exceptions - it's just that the user who runs the scheduled task is not logged on and therefore has no APPDATA

    When SQLcl is called, the following lines are recorded... (italics: private information, "BOLD": SQLcl output not visible when the user connects while work is carried out at the request)

    03/09/2015 12:16:41.979 to connect to the jdbc URL ... (this output is to the batch calling SQLcl - everything below is SQLcl or SQL script)

    Message geändert durch stueckl - information server added

    Message geändert durch stueckl - information server deleted - it's a general problem

    If we were talking about developer SQL itself rather than SQLcl, then the solution is simple... you can always force your user settings to a folder accessible in arbitrary writing using the ide.user.dir environment variable just add something like this line to the file sqldeveloper.conf to your installation:

    AddVMOption - Dide.user.dir =

    SQLcl, however, is hard-coded dependency on APPDATA in Windows (and user.home on Linux).  May not be feasible in your case, but in some cases simple, APPDATA can be overridden in the script that launches the SQLcl and the NetEntries and xml SQL history files are read from / written to this file.

    For example: value APPDATA = C:\Temp

    The serial number of the computer has nothing to do with the product key for Windows.

    What happened when you tried to install Xp with sp3? If you do not have the original for the computer that you use to install Windows?

    You can try to contact the manufacturer of the computer who may be able to provide the recovery disc. The disks are usually under $ 20.

  • Computer not stay awake for the scheduled task

    System wakes up to the task at the right time, but falls asleep almost immediately after starting the task.  Power management is set to put the computer to sleep after 20 minutes, but eventlog shows the alarm system at 01:59 for the scheduled task and to sleep at 02:02.

    Excellent.  I am pleased to learn that the problem is essentially solved with only a little extra configuration of the task remaining.

  • Upgrade Windows 8 Pro blocked after the first reboot

    I have a HP Media Center PC m7470n. When I upgraded with Windows 8 Pro disc, after the first reboot, it gets stuck on the Windows form with turning points. He's not going back to XP and when I stop and restart, he goes right back to the same screen. I tried to boot from a hard drive and CD ROM with the disc in. I also tried to do a system restore, but it still maintains just that goes back to the same screen. , I even contacted Microsoft Support and after 1 1/2 hours, I had to let go because I had to go to work and they do not have a solution for me. I am not able to go in Mode safe either. Can someone help me with this update or at least get back to XP so that I can at least use my computer?

  • Reconfigure the scheduled task

    With the help of a previous script LucD http://www.lucd.info/2009/10/18/scheduled-tasks-methodaction/ I'm able to succeed in creating a task scheduled that powers on a virtual machine. I need to extend this so that if the existing task is already there it will update with the new configuration. I downloaded the SDK and read the docs to try to understand but he always aludes me.

    $dtmDate = get-Date
    $gmtoffset = 6
    $startTime = $dtmDate.AddHours ($gmtoffset)

    $emailAddr = "< emailaddr >.
    $vm = "< vm >".
    $folder = "SchedTask".
    $vmview = get-View (Get - VM $vm)
    $folderview = get-View (Get-file $folder)

    $spec = new-Object VMware.Vim.ScheduledTaskSpec
    $spec. Name = 'Turned on' + $vm
    $spec. Description = 'Turned on' + $vm
    $spec. Enabled = $true
    $spec. Notification = $emailAddr
    $spec. Timer = New-Object VMware.Vim.OnceTaskScheduler
    $spec. Scheduler.runat = $startTime
    $spec. Action = New-Object VMware.Vim.MethodAction
    $spec. Action.Name = "PowerOnVM_Task."

    $svcRef = new-object VMware.Vim.ManagedObjectReference
    $svcRef.Type = 'ServiceInstance.
    $svcRef.Value = 'ServiceInstance.
    $serviceInstance = get-views $svcRef

    $stMgr = get-View ($serviceInstance.Content.ScheduledTaskManager)

    $stMgr.CreateScheduledTask($vmview.) MoRef, $Spec)

    This should do the trick.

    $dtmDate = Get-Date $gmtoffset = 6 $startTime = $dtmDate.AddHours($gmtoffset)
    
    $emailAddr = "[email protected]" $vm = "MyVM" $folder = "SchedTask"$vm = Get-VM $vm
    $spec = New-Object VMware.Vim.ScheduledTaskSpec$spec.Name = "Power On " + $vm.Name
    $spec.Description = "Power On " + $vm.Name
    $spec.Enabled = $true$spec.Notification = $emailAddr$spec.Scheduler = New-Object VMware.Vim.OnceTaskScheduler$spec.Scheduler.runat = $startTime$spec.Action = New-Object VMware.Vim.MethodAction$spec.Action.Name = "PowerOnVM_Task"
    $stMgr = Get-View ScheduledTaskManager$stMgr.RetrieveEntityScheduledTask($vm.ExtensionData.MoRef) | %{
        $st = Get-View -Id $_ | where {$_.Info.Name -eq $spec.Name}
    }
    
    if($st){
        $spec.Name += " Updated"    $st.ReconfigureScheduledTask($spec)
    }
    else{
        $stMgr.CreateScheduledTask($vm.ExtensionData.MoRef, $Spec)
    }
    

    The script sets the $spec object as before. It then checks if a task with this name already exists for the virtual machine.

    If so, it calls the ReconfigureScheduledTask method.

    Otherwise, it calls the CreateScheduledTask method.

    Note that I have adapted the script a bit to use some features present in newer versions of PowerCLI.

    As proof that the existing scheduled task is updated, I change the name for the scheduled task.

    But you can change any property in the object $spec in the same way

  • Move VM to csv file and create the scheduled task in VC

    What is the problem with the last line ' $scheduledTaskManager.CreateScheduledTask ($vmView.MoRef, $task) "?

    1. The ScheduledTaskManager lies in the Service Instance.

    $si = get-view ServiceInstance

    $scheduledTaskManager is Get-view $si. Content.ScheduledTaskManager

    1. We need to identify the virtual machine and the host where it will be powered on.

    #$vmView = get - VM PowerOnTest | Get-View

    #$esxView = get-VMHost esx35 - 01.vitoolkit.local | Get-View

    foreach ($f in (import-csv '

    'D:\MigrateStorage\amsterdam-core-hp-poweron.csv'))

    {

    $vmView = $f

    *

    echo $vmView

    *

    }

    1. Now we build the task argument.

    $arg = New-Object VMware.Vim.MethodActionArgument

    #$ARG value = $esxview. MoRef

    $action = New-Object VMware.Vim.MethodAction

    $action. Argument = $arg

    $action. Name = "PowerOnVM_Task".

    $scheduler = new-object VMware.Vim.OnceTaskScheduler

    $scheduler.runat = .addminutes (5) (get-date)

    $task = New-Object VMware.Vim.ScheduledTaskSpec

    $task. Action = $action

    $task. Description = 'start a virtual machine with a scheduled task '.

    $task. Enabled = $true

    $task. Name = 'Virtual Machine market '.

    $task. Programmer = $scheduler

    $scheduledTaskManager.CreateScheduledTask ($vmView.MoRef, $task)

    The following script should do the trick.

    $csvName = 
    $tgtDatastore = 
    $emailAddr = 
    $startTime =                   # Ex [Datetime]"10/21/2009 20:00"
    $startInterval = 
    
    $si = get-view ServiceInstance
    $scheduledTaskManager = Get-View $si.Content.ScheduledTaskManager
    
    $offset = 0
    Import-Csv $csvName | % {
         $vm = Get-View -ViewType VirtualMachine -Filter @{"Name"=$_.VMname}
    
         $spec = New-Object VMware.Vim.ScheduledTaskSpec
         $spec.Name = "svMotion " + $_.VMname
         $spec.Description = "Migrate " + $_.VMname + " to " + $tgtDatastore
         $spec.Enabled = $true
         $spec.Notification = $emailAddr
         $spec.Scheduler = New-Object VMware.Vim.OnceTaskScheduler
         $spec.Scheduler.runat = $startTime.AddMinutes($offset)
         $offset += $startInterval
         $spec.Action = New-Object VMware.Vim.MethodAction
         $spec.Action.Name = "RelocateVM_Task"
    
         $arg1 = New-Object VMware.Vim.MethodActionArgument
         $arg1.Value = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineRelocateSpec
         $arg1.Value.datastore = (Get-Datastore $tgtDatastore | Get-View).MoRef
          $arg1.Value.pool = $vm.ResourcePool
          $arg1.Value.host = $vm.Runtime.Host
    
         $spec.Action.Argument += $arg1
         $arg2 = New-Object VMware.Vim.MethodActionArgument
         $arg2.Value = [http://VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineMovePriority|http://VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineMovePriority]"defaultPriority"
         $spec.Action.Argument += $arg2
    
         $scheduledTaskManager.CreateScheduledTask($vm.MoRef, $spec)
    }
    

    Although the scheduled task will trigger a svMotion, CreateScheduledTask method seems still need a host and resourepool MoRef in VirtualMachineRelocateSpec argument.

  • Status of the scheduled task

    Hello

    In our current setup, we need trigger report of the editor on the completion of an external task.

    We use the Editor (ScheduleRequest) web services to start the generation of report and then to an FTP server.

    However, we must now trigger another task based on completion of the scheduled task from the Publisher.

    ScheduleRequest returns the job ID.

  • Permission to create/run the scheduled task

    Hello

    I'm running Windows 7 Pro RTM and I try to use my normal user account to create and run a new scheduled task, but whenever I try to save the task, I get an error msg saying "Task Scheduler cannot create the task.» Does not know the user account, the password is incorrect or the user account doesn't have permission to create this task".

    I have no problems running tasks under my admin account, but I don't want to use it for everyday purposes. I'm also sure that this error must be because of permissions problems, so can I know what is the privilege that a user must have to create/run one account task?

    Thank you very much

    Hi hifer,.

    Please use the forum for answers,

    If your account is a standard account, you will not have permission to create a task or schedule task.  Your account must be an administrator account to schedule the task for the system or it must be run as an administrator.

    It have additional permissions, you can add standard user profile to allow the profile to create the task.  But this option is not available in all versions of Windows and rather complicated.  You can try to add these groups to your profile using computer management in administrative tools.  User with power and Backup administrator can provide you with the authorization that you need if the groups are available with your version of Windows 7.

    Hope this helps,

  • Why the scheduled task cannot rename?

    In Windows 7, after that I put a scheduled task, the task name cannot be renamed.

    Does anyone know a trick to rename rather than create a new one?

    Thanks in advance for your suggestions

    Yes, it's fast & simple.

    Export the task in any convenient folder.  [Export is on the right side of the window TS]

    It is saved as an xml file.

    Switch to the folder in Windows Explorer and rename the xml file with any name you want to change the task.

    Import the xml file.  [Import is also on the right side of the window TS]

    You will then see a task with any name you call the xml file.

  • Disable the scheduled task when the cover is closed

    Hi all

    I'm working on a project using a Panel (with several buttons) and scheduled tasks.

    The problem is that when I close the Panel, scheduled tasks continue to run in the background.

    So, I wanted to know if there is a way to kill these tasks when the cover is closed.

    Thank you for your time!

    Ekibyo

    I don't think you don't need none of that: what you need to do is store the Panel object in a global variable or a property of your script object and then try to access in the task code.

    So let's say that you store the window in a global variable:

    var MyScriptPanel = this;
    

    Then in the task code, you should be able to test if the Panel object is still valid:

    try
    {
         //     Atempt to access a dummy variable:
         //     - will return undefined if the Panel is open
         //     - should throw an error if the panel is closed
        MyScriptPanel.a;
    
         //     Do your thing and reschedule the task
    }
    catch (err)
    {
        //    Cancel the task
    }
    

    Tell me if it works.

    After using many scheduleTask I must say don't really like it: I have not tested in CC, but you may notice in CS4 to 6 that it resets the cursor when the mouse is not moving or ignore some shortcuts keyboard, so I would recommend not not to schedule your task too often, or at least give the user a way to select the frequency of execution.

    EDIT: as your line is not fair:

    panel.onClose = Panel_Close();
    

    It should be...

    panel.onClose = Panel_Close;
    

    ... with no '()' so that you copy only the body of the function in the callback to onColse. But I wouldn't rely on the events of the UI for something that should work every time.
