Fathom Task Scheduler

The Task Scheduler page is provided for Fathom diagnostic purposes. If you encounter problems with Fathom jobs or reports, Technical Support will use the information provided by the Task Scheduler when debugging. Figure 6–1 shows a sample Task Scheduler page.

Fathom uses the Quartz Enterprise Job Scheduler to run tasks. The Restart button allows you to stop and restart the Quartz Scheduler. Use the Restart button only when directed to do so by Technical Support.

Note: For more information about the Quartz Enterprise Job Scheduler, see http://www.quartzscheduler.org.

To access the Task Scheduler, expand the Fathom Diagnostics category and click the Task Scheduler link. The Fathom Task Scheduler Diagnostics page appears.
