Issue #16804 has been updated by Pascal Sartoretti.
Maybe support for Windows Server 2003 is not required, as this OS is already in "Extended Support" phase (no more in "Mainstream Support" phase), and will be terminated in 2015. ---------------------------------------- Feature #16804: scheduled_task : add support for "every X minutes or hours" mode https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/16804#change-78419 Author: Pascal Sartoretti Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: Keywords: windows Branch: As stated in the Puppet documentation (http://docs.puppetlabs.com/windows/writing.html#scheduledtaskscheduledtask), the "scheduled_task" resource type does not support repetition modes such as "every X minutes". It is a pity, because such tasks are very commonly used in Windows servers (and maybe less on Windows clients), making "scheduled_task" not so useful. It is true that the configuration of Windows scheduled task is complicated (as opposed to crontab...); we may not need all the features available in the Windows GUI (like "Until", "Duration" or "If the task is still running, stop it at this time"), I guess it would be enough to support "every X minutes" and "every Y hours". -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
