How to Schedule a Job in Net MRI?

[#1]

I'm writing a script in Net MRI for scheduled Job on certain devices.

So far I have created a script and retrieved jobID. I have to schedule it for a futuristic date.

Can someone help me which broker method is useful?

I have been digging API docs for various methods

exp

my $job = $client->broker->job->show({JobID => $job_id})->{job}; 

All the given broker methods are for index,search and find with some matching input my question is how do I set the time?

Please advise.

Look at JobSpecification. That defines the job schedule, script, parameters, etc., whereas the Job model tracks actual runs of that specification.

Hi John,

 I have successfully created a Job specifications dn the script is doing great. This time I'm creating the same thing but with a extremely large number of commands (Configuration file) to be executed.

its creating a job but I noticed the Commands are cut off.

I looked into the API but couldn't find any specification with the pagination or limit for line number?

Can you please advice.

Commands to executed = "very long configuration file....."

Its being cut off in between.

Please advise.
