Temporarily stop scheduled profiles

Postby Relatics on Mon May 23, 2016 7:18 am

Hi,

I want to stop and start some profiles as a scheduled task. This because we have some maintenance at night and we want to stop syncronisation before maintenance and start it again after.

We are running the profiles on a schedular which is running on a service. They are running with Real Time Synchronization with Continuous Sync.

I tried to stop the service but the profiles are still running.

It is possible to stop and start all profiles at once.

Knows anyone an option to force this?

Hello,
Continuous Sync profiles will run on their own, so you need to cancel them individually.

Please consider if you really need continuous sync. Usually, normal Real-Time Sync is sufficient.

The Continuous Sync checkmark has only one purpose: to avoid disconnecting and reconnecting with FTP servers.

It has no effect unless you use FTP. The only effect is that it continues to run on its own even if you stop the scheduler. And the log files look a little different.

At this moment the profile is running on the schedule on the service.

Is the best practice to schedule pre fixed maintenance windows to make an Windows task to stop the service and an windows task to start the service? Or are there any other better options?
