Clearing a Periodic Schedule
If you decide that you do not need to have any recurring batch jobs, you can clear the scheduled jobs from the Periodic schedule. Once the Periodic schedule is empty, the batch jobs in the Default schedule come into effect.
You can clear existing jobs from a Periodic schedule without creating any new jobs. However, when you clear a Periodic schedule, you clear all the jobs that exist for that schedule.
How to clear a Periodic schedule
- Follow steps 1 to 3 in Setting a Periodic Schedule
- Type y when you reach the following prompt:
WOULD YOU LIKE TO CLEAR THE SCHEDULE OF PRE-EXISTING ENTRIES? (y/n) [n]
- Type n when you reach the following prompt:
WOULD YOU LIKE TO SCHEDULE ANY ENTRIES? (y/n) [y]
This clears the Periodic schedule and displays an empty schedule, confirming that the system cleared the jobs.
