Using the Qsched.exe task-scheduling utility

Using the Qsched.exe task-scheduling utility

The Migrator for Notes to Exchange (MNE) wizards are used to define the tasks that run migrations. Many wizards let you schedule tasks to run at certain times on certain days. Using the Manage Scheduled Operations screen in the Notes Migration Manager, you can revise the task-execution schedules. However, the wizards and Manage Scheduled Operations screen only manage the scheduling of task runs and these schedules are saved in the SQL database.

The scheduled tasks are run by a low-level Migrator for Notes to Exchange Task Scheduler utility called qsched.exe which is located in the MNE installation directory. This utility is controlled by the MNE Task Schedule service.

The name of the task scheduler service is “Quest Migrator for Notes to Exchange Task Scheduler” and it is installed when you install MNE. By default, the task scheduler service is configured to be in the disabled state. The service is installed to run as Local System.

You can manage the task scheduler service as you would any other Windows service using the Windows Service Manager. Instructions for configuring a Windows service can be found at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms681921(v=vs.85).aspx.

TIP: If the Migrator for Notes to Exchange Task Scheduler experiences logon failures when trying to start the service, see How do I troubleshoot service startup permissions? in the How Do I ...? Appendix of the Migrator for Notes to Exchange Administration Guide.

When used, the task scheduler service polls the Migrator for Notes to Exchange database at regular intervals for any scheduled tasks and invokes the qsched.exe utility to run those tasks at the designated times.

Post-installation configuration

After installing MNE, there are additional configuration steps required to use the Migrator for Notes to Exchange Task Scheduler utility. Open the Windows Service Manager and complete the following steps:

It is recommended that you use the same account that is used to run the MNE console. The display name of the task scheduler service is “Quest Migrator for Notes to Exchange Task Scheduler”.
2
Configure the Quest Migrator for Notes to Exchange Task Scheduler service for autostart mode.
a
If the MNE database is located on a local SQL instance, configure the service to start in the Autostart (Delayed Start) mode.
b
If the MNE database is located on a remote SQL instance, configure the service to start in the Autostart mode.
3
Start the task scheduler service.
