Well, I got the AdminDevel 3.0.1 docs and they look to be great for other problems I run into, but there's nothing more in there on the Scheduling services than what's in the on-line docs ... unless there's supposed to be more info included in the 4 places where I saw the msg ...
 
ERROR! REFERENCE SOURCE NOT FOUND. ERROR! REFERENCE SOURCE NOT FOUND.
 
In fact (and as far as scheduling goes) I'm going back and double checking now, and there's really more info in the on-line docs than there is in the MBean Services Miscellany section of the paid docs where it talks about scheduling tasks.
 
Am I overlooking this info somewhere's else (or did you mean full details on the MBeans)?
 
Either way, I'm afraid this scheduler is a bit too simple (one reason I had to use the Quartz API) and I'm going to have to figure something else out here.

JBoss provides a scheduler as an MBean.  The full details about how to use it are in the for pay JBoss Admin Guide for 3.0.  Its only about $10, so its a steal at that price.  Do get it.

Looking for anyone who has implemented a scheduler of any sort in their J2EE apps? My application is layed out on JBoss 3.0.1 as ... Velocity pages -> Webwork Servlets -> EJB's Problem is I'm not sure where to put a scheduler in this mix. Some jobs are triggered on demand from the user (no problem here). Other jobs that are stored in the database (like cron tasks) need to be triggered, I'm guessing by an external scheduling server. I'd then like the job progress information from that external scheduler server to be viewed by the users (which means communicate back to the JBoss server). In otherwords, I'd rather not have the complexities of an external app to have to trigger and communicate back and forth to JBoss if I don't have to ... but I don't see how to get around it since ejb's don't seem to be a good place for this to happen. Be nice to keep it all in one package. I hope that was clear, any ideas/thoughts much appreciated.
