Scheduler Setup

This article describes the installation steps of ORIGAM Scheduler and its configuration options.

Installation

Use sc.exe utility (see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/251192) to install the OrigamScheduler.exe as a Windows service.

Example

sc create "[ServiceName]" binPath="[PathToServiceDirectory]\OrigamScheduler.exe"

On newer Windows servers add a space after the equal sign to make it work

Example

sc create "[ServiceName]" binPath= "[PathToServiceDirectory]\OrigamScheduler.exe"
[ServiceName] Name of your service, e.g. “ORIGAM Scheduler (Production)”
binPath Path to your ORIGAM application folder which includes OrigamScheduler.exe.

Configuration

It is possible to install several schedulers, each of which will process only a subset of schedules. This way you can scale to multiple servers (or server cores since the schedules are processed in a single thread).

OrigamSettings/SchedulerFilter Here you can enter the name of the model folder of Business Logic/Schedules. The scheduler will then process only schedules located in this folder.
