Hi!

We're currently upgrading our CFMX 6.1 servers to ColdFusion 8; one of those 
servers is more or less exclusively running scheduled tasks - quite a lot of 
these in fact. As I wish to keep the downtime as short as possible, I wondered 
if the format of the neo-cron.xml has changed in any significant way from 
ColdFusion MX 6.1 to ColdFusion 8 - because if it hasn't, I could simply copy 
that file over from my CF MX installation without having to reconfigure each 
scheduled task manually (with ColdFusion 8 stopped, of course).

I haven't found anything neither in the docs nor on this mailinglist regarding 
this issue. Manually comparing a couple of samples, I only found only one 
additional element

  <var name='paused'>
        <boolean value='false'/>
  </var>

for each scheduled task.

I am now planning to simply edit my CF MX 6.1 neo-cron.xml and insert this new 
element into every <struct type='coldfusion.scheduling.CronTabEntry'>-element, 
stop CF8, copy that file into {coldfusion8-root}/lib, start the server and hope 
for the best.

Am I missing anything? Has anybody tried that yet?

Kind regards

   Markus
