You cannot import them as a file But you can write a relatively simple script to imports your jobs from the current format.
Such script can be created in different tools (DOS batch using 24x7 JDL commands; native JAL script job in 24x7; VBA script in MS Access or MS Word; command line or web-based VBScript or JavaScript) For script examples see "Examples of Using Job Definition Language Commands" topic in the on-line help. In case if you are talking about 24x7 Scheduler Java Edition, it has a tool to import crontab jobs (from a selected crontab file). You can save your jobs definitions in a crontab compatible format and then import that file. The deficiency of this method is that it uses system generated job names like "Crontab job #n" so that if you export 500 jobs you would end-up with 500 hundred entries which you will need to rename manually. I am not sure you will save a lot of time if you use that method. : Is anyone aware of how to take "jobs" from a home grown system and
: map them into the correct format so that I can import them into the 24/7
: scheduler. I don't want to add the jobs manually as there are over 500 of
: them. Maybe an excel spreadsheet formated for an import? Is there an
: import template where I can fill in the blanks for a job and it would
: import into the .dat database?
