What is OZ Scheduler?

OZ Scheduler is a task-scheduling server for OZ Report. OZ Scheduler connects with OZ Server to automatically create a report and publish it to the web or send it through email. In case of email, the administrator can use presets to publish the report at a specific date and time. Also, the administrator can send the report to a pre-configured email address.

OZ Scheduler is useful for batch jobs that process large data or reports, which are created repeatedly and periodically. Users can register the scheduling task through OZ Enterprise Manager.

With OZ Scheduler, you can schedule the entire process of creating and distributing periodical reports and batch reports. Periodical reports are distributed at a certain time on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. Batch reports involve large-scale data processing.

Additionally, you can distribute the scheduler reports to the email address of a person who is already registered in OZ Scheduler.

To run OZ Scheduler, perform the following steps:

1.Set the OZ Scheduler home path and port number.

2.Set the type of viewer that runs the task.

3.Set the Java home path.

4.Setup the OZ Scheduler license file.

5.Run the OZ Scheduler executable file.
