The schedule
property of the Batch Reporting Service determines when and how often it queries the system for reporting information. The default setting of this property is:
schedule=calendar * . * 4 0
This calendar frequency is every morning at 4:00 am. Calendar takes frequency in the following order:
month day weekday hour (military) minute
In the above example: the first asterisk (*) means every month. The period (.) means no day specified. The second asterisk (*) means all weekdays. The 4 means 4:00. The 0 is for no minutes.
Note: When you set the Batch Reporting Service to run periodically, keep in mind that it puts a load on the system. You should consider running it at off-peak hours (like the middle of the night). Also, you should not run the Batch Reporting Service on a server that manages your public Web site.
