Hi, I have been trying to setup some scheduled tasks in TIC and I have noticed some unusual behavior regarding the time I was setting for the task to execute.
My setup is
- Client: WIN7 Laptop (TZ GMT) running TDP 3.8
- TIC Server: WIN7 VM on Server (TZ GMT) Running TIC 2.7
- DB: Oracle DB (TZ UTC - 7).
Now I wanted to check which timezone I should set the the schedule in as TDP stated that all times are according to server time so I was confused if this was the TIC Server or oracle DB Server. So at 11am GMT I set a "One Time" execution for 11.10am GMT. The Script ran with no issues so I assumed that the time was set to the TIC server (GMT) and I configured the task to run at 5am every morning. The next day I checked to see if the task had run but there was no Log of the task. I checked the scheduled task and could see that it said its next runtime was 5am that morning but obviously it didn't run. Now I could not check if the task would run later that day because the TIC server was at 11am and the Oracle DB was 3am and you cannot schedule a task in the past.
So to fix this I changed the TIC Server timezone to match the Oracle DB Time zone and then retested the task at 3.30am (11.30am GMT) and then the task worked correctly?
Can someone confirm that this is normal behavior? How does the "One Time" setup trigger at the TIC server timezone but the daily automation Trigger at the DB timezone?
R,
Trevor
