Hello friends, This may not be the right forum to ask this question. But I couldn't find the appropriate forum.
I have requirement, wherein I will have to run 2 types of schedulers. I am using DB2 8.1 and WebSphere 5 running on windows. One scheduler, should wake up on a particular date and time defined in a table and then updates some other tables. Another scheduler, should wake up on a particular date and time defined in a table and then sends out emails. I think I have 3 options: 1. Define and configure the schedulers using the DB2 tools. 2. Build custom schedulers in my WebSphere application, that periodically checks the system date with scheduled date and then updates the relevant table and also sends out email using the Java mail APIs 3. write a stand alone java program and use a windows scheduler. These schedulers are purely back-end activities and do not depend on the user actions. The first option may be the appropriate one, but I am not sure about the implications. Your comments are appreciated. Thanks. Pradeep Kumar MindTree Consulting 91 80 6711777 Xtn: 2033 DISCLAIMER: This message (including attachment if any) is confidential and may be privileged.
