Scheduler options

The Messaging Server Scheduler schedules and initiates execution of various periodic jobs for Messaging Server. These jobs may include the following named s:



 , the MTA&#x27;s message return job (message bouncer job), that returns (bounces) excessively old, undelivered messages, 

 , the Message Store&#x27;s message expiration job, that deletes from disk messages that users have deleted from their mailboxes, 

 , checking whether Messaging Server components such as server processes are available ("up") and responsive, 

 , the MTA&#x27;s log file purge job, that purges "older" MTA log files, 

 , the Message Store&#x27;s database "snapshot" job, that captures a current-moment "snapshot" of the messages in the Message Store, 

 , the Message Store&#x27;s database "snapshot verification" job, that verifies whether snapshots are sound. 



The only options for the Scheduler itself are  (to enable the Scheduler&#x27;s own operation) and. The settings of more interest are those under named   groups under the Scheduler, configuring behavior of each named task.

The Scheduler does not have its own  option group. This means that in unified configuration Scheduler debugging is controlled by the  option group. For example, Scheduler debug output to the default log can be enabled by setting: msconfig&#x3e; set base.logfile.loglevel debug Note that this enables debug output for other utilities, e.g., msprobe, as well.
