If you have a task that recurs on a regular basis, such as a nightly backup, you can schedule it as a recurring job. You only schedule recurring jobs once, and then Batch Services automatically runs all future occurrences of the job for you.

As an example, we will schedule a system backup to run every Tuesday and Thursday at 7:00 PM, starting on the first of September 2014. To do this:

  1. Open Intergraph Batch Manager and select the queue to which you want to submit the recurring job.

  2. Select Job > Submit.

  3. Browse for and select the backup script that you want to run.

  4. Select the Scheduling tab.

  5. Select weekly job frequency by choosing the Weekly radio button.

  6. Select a weekly frequency of every 1 week.

  7. Select the Tuesday and Thursday checkboxes, making sure that no other checkboxes are selected.

  8. Set the effective date to September 1, 2014.

  9. Set the start time to 19:00 (7:00 PM). The Next Occurrence field will note that the first occurrence of the backup job will be run on Thursday, September 1, 2014 at 7:00 PM.
