Hi everyone.
We’re just implemented some scheduled tasks in our system (release 6.7.0, patch RX-16101).
As far as I can see there’s no possibility to enable and disable a Cron job in CM System, but only to delete and recreate it… Am I right?
If so that implies only developers can manage them as we cannot leave super-users to play with those “tricky” Cron specifications…
Any suggestions about how to sort this out?
Cheers.
You are correct, there is no way to disable or enable a scheduled task.
I asked a very similar question and got a response that said you could disable a task by changing the server name of the task configuration. For me, if I want to disable a scheduled task I just change the server name from being empty to ‘TASK_DISABLED’ or similar.

Thank you very much, it works.
I was a bit concerned about the failure email notification (something like “Unknown server”) but I didn’t get any email from the system.
Cheers.
