Modifying job scheduler without code deployment

General

Hello All,

We have recently upgraded to pega 8.5.2 and as pega recommends have used Job scheduler instead of legacy advanced agents. However every time there is a need to change the frequency , it requires a change in the rule. Unlike agent schedules there is no way to update the frequency directly in production without change in the rule.

I have gone through the earlier posts and it seems that only options are

  1. Code deployment

  2. Save as and modify in higher unlocked ruleset in Production

Is there any better way of doing it ?

Yes as like agent we would not be able to change scheduler time directly in production.

One option to handle this without deployment is, we could have the job-scheduler in production environment delegation rule-set and whenever needed we could change the timing in scheduler rule..

@GunaSekaran_B - That is something we have in mind , but wanted to understand if anything else is there available now in pega which is in similar lines as we had for agent schedules in past. Thanks.
