pgAgent Windows service startup time

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

The first time I tried to setup the pgAgent job scheduler on Windows I was 
wondered the service couldn't start for a very long time. Further 
investigation shown that the 'poll time interval' executable parameter (-t) 
affects startup time. Moreover, startup time directly reflects this 
parameter. At first, I set (-t 600) meaning I want the pgAgent poll my 
server ones every 10 minutes. Having sent the 'start' control to the service 
I had at last to kill the process, because it was remaining in the 
'Starting' state for several minutes. But leaving the '-t' parameter to 
default (10 seconds) caused the service to start exactly in 10 seconds! And 
so on.
I doubt it's a feature; what if I want to poll a PostgreSQL server every 
day? pgAgent will start during whole day?

Both PostgreSQL and pgAgent services are running on Windows Server 2003 
Standard Edition SP2.
PostgreSQL 8.3.7
pgAgent 3.0.0 (as of Mar 2009)

Regards,
Dmitry.
