A Job Schedule registers a recurring cadence. When a ticket asks for work on a repeating schedule — “check disk space every Monday at 09:00”, “every 15 minutes” — 2501 doesn’t run the job once; it registers a schedule. Each tick spawns a fresh Job that follows the normal lifecycle. Schedules are managed under Job Schedules in Command Center.
Job Schedules

Job Schedules: each row is a cadence. Each tick fans out into a normal Job with all the usual orchestration and reporting.

How a schedule is created

Schedules are registered automatically when an incoming ticket describes a recurring action. The gateway detects the cadence in the ticket text and creates the schedule instead of a one-off job. You don’t create schedules manually in Command Center. The action of “make this recurring” comes from the ticket itself — usually a comment or a description like “run this every Monday morning”.

What you see for each schedule

Managing a schedule

  • Pause / stop a schedule from its detail page. Stopping it cancels future ticks but does not affect Jobs already in flight.
  • Re-activate is not currently surfaced — to “restart” a schedule, comment on the source ticket and let the gateway re-register.
  • Edit cadence is also driven from the source ticket; comment on the ticket to change the schedule and the gateway will reinterpret.

Interval flooring

Very fast intervals are floored to 5 minutes in production. Asking for “every minute” registers as “every 5 minutes”. This protects the agent fleet from runaway schedules and matches what realistic remediation cadences look like.

License interaction

Scheduled jobs count against the same task cap as ad-hoc jobs. The cap is a lifetime tenant total — see Licensing. If the tenant has reached its cap when a tick fires, that tick skips rather than queues. The schedule itself stays active; the next tick will try again once headroom exists.
