Restart 24x7 Service

I want to automatically restart the 24x7 service each morning. There may be jobs that are running
when the restart occurs.

Can you tell me what impact that will have on jobs that are running?

Will they be terminated by the scheduler as it shuts down?

How about if the jobs are detached?

It will try to kill running jobs. This usually works well but there is no guarantee that every process can be aborted. Theoretically some processes just cannot be killed if they are waiting for a resource availability from the core operation system or hung on a network connection.

actually, I was hoping that it didn't kill the jobs and wondering whether detached
would keep the running jobs running...

Nope, this won't help. But there is a solution. Create a JAL job script to abort and restart the scheduler programmatically so that it has no chance to kill running jobs
The job can use JobProcessID and ProcessKill to kill the scheduler process, for example,

	Code:
	// start new instance Dim( pid, number ) Run( "24x7.exe", "", pid ) // kill current instance JobProcessID( pid ) ProcessKill( pid )
