How to Schedule a task in Vista

Hi All,

Is Vista get rid of the task scheduling? We can schedule a task easily through the Scheduled Task under control panel, but I cannot find similar stuff in Vista.

Can anyone tell me if schedule a task is still available in Vista? If yes, where can I do that?

Thakns in advance!

Gordon

Ummm... A suggestion, especially for something that isn't released yet:

Search Microsoft's Web site for this information. Or even Google.

Your answer looks to be in the first link when I searched for "windows vista scheduled task" in Google.

Phil|||Good suggestion and will keep in mind!

Did you add that Windows account to the SQL Server you try to access?

Especially when jobs are running across the network, use a network account
to start the SQL Server agent services.

How to run multiple dependent SQL Jobs with OSQL

I want to execute multiple SQL Server scheduled jobs using OSQL, but I only want to execute a job if the previous job completed. Is this possible? So far I am unable to prevent all jobs from starting before any have completed.

OSQL -Sservername -E -b -Q"usp_start_job 'JobNumber1'" -o usp_start_job.out
IF ERRORLEVEL 1 GOTO ERROR

OSQL -Sservername -E -b -Q"usp_start_job 'JobNumber2'" -o usp_start_job.out
IF ERRORLEVEL 1 GOTO ERROR

OSQL -Sservername -E -b -Q"usp_start_job 'JobNumber3'" -o usp_start_job.out
IF ERRORLEVEL 1 GOTO ERROR
GOTO EXIT

:ERROR
ECHO *** ERROR *** Check Log File

:EXIT
*** JOB COMPLETED ***

DaveCreate a new job that uses separate steps consisting of an sp_start_job to launch one of the other jobs. Each step will execute in turn, launching the appropriate job.

-PatP|||I already tried that with no success. The logic looks as follows:

sp_start_job 'DBA Test' -- Inserts one record into a table
go
sp_start_job 'DBA Test2' -- Waits 20 seconds and inserts a record
go
sp_start_job 'DBA Test3' -- Insert a record
go

All jobs execute immediately.

Dave|||That looks suspiciously like a SQL script instead of a job with a set of job steps to me.

-PatP|||Lightbulb.

We had a DR test this week and apparently I'm still experiencing the affects. Thanks for the help. That should do the trick.

Dave|||I spoke too soon. I added sp_start_job 'job name' to three different job steps and the same problem occurs. All three jobs are executed before any job completes. I believe the reason is due to sp_start_job. SQL Server successfully executes the command, which simply starts the job. It doesn't care whether or not the job it started has completed.

Any suggestions.

How to run MDX query as scheduled job?

Hi,

Is there any way to run MDX

query as scheduled job on SQL Server 2005?

We need create local cubes by

weekly or monthly. How can we put “Create global cube” MDX query into scheduled

job?

Any info would be greatly

appreciated.

Thanks.

Yes. Create a new SQL Server Agent job and add a step with the step type of SQL Server Analysis Services Query. For this type of step, you need to specify the SSAS server to connect to, the database to run the query within, and the text for the query itself.

Should do exactly what you want...

HTH,

Hi Dave,

Thanks for the quick replay.

Could you recommend any article or books that I can take look?

Thanks.

I'm assuming you are asking about references for SSIS? If that is the case, check out Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Integration Services (SQL Server Series) by Kirk Haselden, Professional SQL Server 2005 Integration Services (Programmer to Programmer) by Brian Knight et al, and The Rational Guide to Extending SSIS 2005 with Script (Rational Guides) (Rational Guides) by Donald Farmer. All great books related to SSIS that should get you started...

HTH,

Dave Fackler
