  • Ok but why does it works like this under the hood? Why 20 minutes? Why on schedule?

    msdn web page is not very chatty about it.

    Just what I was wondering.

  • Thanks for this interesting question. I have been able to answer it only because I have studied jobs ( and used them ) in September.

    As several posters , I am surprised by this value ( 20 minutes ) which I am considering as short and maybe wasteful in resources but I am far to be a specialist of this topic that I have used scarcely since the 2008 / 2008 R2 versions.

  • That was new 4 me, thanx

    I was surprised in the opposite direction, as in, I wondered why this wouldn't be updated every time something changed, like a new job being scheduled, or a job finishing execution. Obviously not a server implementer here 🙂

    As I wrote in my post , my knowledge of jobs is coming from the time I have installed my SQL Server 2008 ( not R2 ). As I am curious , I have used jobs to be not ignorant about this topic , but I have not used it since 2010 except a little on September. It is why I have written that I am far to be a specialist. About your reply , you gave good reasons which push me to consider that I have been wrong.

    I will restart to use jobs later as I have several problems with an old application using SMO and I don't like to give up something before having tried to finish a task in the most full way ( even if perfection is impossible ).

    Anyway , thank you to have pointed my error. I have learnt something today and that it is the most important point according to me.

    Have a nice day

    I don't think you made any error though, because you got the question right and I didn't, so if anybody made an error it was obviously me 🙂 We both learnt today and that's what counts right?
