For various reasons it's not practical to use quartz etc to schedule my
routes, all the scheduling must be done using the corporate scheduler. I
have searched the forums and it seems all scheduler discussion is based on
the built-in quartz/cron etc.

Anyway my idea to integrate with the external scheduler is simply to use a
<from uri="file: ..." /> that looks for a marker file that will be placed by
the external scheduler, this will tell the route when to run. I figure also,
the route can drop another marker file at the end to report success or
failure; the external scheduler can also be made to look for these files to
get the job status.

Can anyone think of any drawbacks to this approach, or have any better
suggestions?

Thanks
