Thank you

You're welcome.

In option 1: Do you mean using *etaMillis of **TaskOptions *using  to
specify the execute time?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes.


We can trigger a TaskInit by cron and create 48 tasks in queue(every
30 minutes) to avoid chain task.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Good idea: I didn't think of that.


I just wish a simple syntax to support such requirement
-------------------------------------------------------
Me too.
