Scheduler: Periodcally schedul jobs

[WolfgangEibner]

• Reschedule periodical jobs after executing them
• Should periodical jobs get scheduled until they are deleted or do we have same active/inactive flag?
• Should we stop rescheduling a job if it has an error? If so, how can the user continue the job?

[WolfgangEibner]

Rescheduling should be done in f8c704c.

[rsimon]

Yes - rescheduling happens; are currently re-scheduled until deleted by the user.

[WolfgangEibner]

We should discuss the two remaining points at the next meeting.

[WolfgangEibner]

According to today's meeting:

• Stop rescheduling a job if it gets deleted
• Introduce an onHold flag to (de-)activate a job, including according changes in REST API (onHold status, feature to put job onHold or reactivate it)
• Put a job onHold after it ended with an error
• UI should also offer a possibility to deactivate/reactivate (pause/continue) a job

[rsimon]

Committed fix: after a Job is deleted from the DB, it is no longer rescheduled

[WolfgangEibner]

onHold Flag introduced in 7a42104.

Still needed:

• changes in REST API (onHold status, feature to put job onHold or reactivate it)
• Put a (rescheduling) job onHold after it ended with an error (do we want that)?
• UI should also offer a possibility to deactivate/reactivate (pause/continue) a job

Added isOnHold status to the REST GET interface (/jobs/username -> getjobs)
