TIBCO Spotfire® Server and Environment - Installation and Administration

Creating schedules

You can create and save schedules that you plan to reuse in scheduled updates to analyses. If a schedule will only be used once, you can set it when you create the update rule.

Procedure

  1. Log in to Spotfire Server and click Scheduling & Routing.
  2. In the "Saved schedules" pane, click Create schedule.
  3. In the "Create schedule" dialog, enter a name for the schedule.
  4. Under Repeat, indicate the days on which you want the update to run by selecting the appropriate check boxes.
  5. Under Start and End, enter the times between which the updated analysis should be available to end users (on the days that you indicated in the previous step).
  6. Under Time zone, select the time zone for the times that you entered in the previous step.
  7. Under Check for updates every, select how often you want Spotfire Server to check whether the analysis file or its underlying data has changed. If the analysis or data has changed, the server updates the pre-loaded file.
    Note: Analyses are always updated and loaded at the beginning of each scheduled start time, in addition to the reloads that are set in the Check for updates every field. If a scheduled update is scheduled for 24 hours a day/7 days a week, with Check for updates every set to 0, the analysis is loaded only once, when the rule is initially executed.
  8. Click Save.

Results

The new schedule is displayed in the Saved schedules list.
