At my new job, I work with a lot of very smart people. I was chatting with Ben Curry, and he remarked about the troubles that a lot of administrators have with the OWSTimer.exe program. So, I wrote an extension to STSADM that will help manage this program. You can find the Adminstration Extension Download for SharePoint on the Mindsharp site.

Feedback is appreciated. Paul at barracada.net

I found a particularly interesting comment on the Technet Script Center page for Scheduled Tasks:

Note that this class can only return jobs that are created using either a script or AT.exe. It cannot return information about jobs that are either created by or modified by the Scheduled Task wizard.

A search of the .Net Framework turned up empty. As far as I can tell, schtasks.exe is the way to go if you want the end-users to be able to change the default entry…


UPDATED June 14, 2007:   I used the Task Scheduler library from Code Project.

Amanda Murphy has started writing SharePoint articles for Intranet Journal. The SharePoint series over there has slowed down since I got too busy to contribute. But with Amanda and Rob, I look forward to more great stuff!
