About the DAC Scheduler Tab

The Scheduler tab allows you to schedule ETL processes to be run either once at a later time or periodically. When you schedule an ETL or make changes to a schedule, the DAC server picks up the information from the DAC client. The DAC server polls the DAC repository for changes periodically at a frequency set in the DAC system properties. For information about DAC system properties, see Setting Up DAC System Properties.

The top pane of the Scheduler tab lists ETL processes that have been scheduled. The bottom pane allows you to schedule an ETL process.

Table 48 provides a description of the information displayed in the top pane list.
