Hello, I have setup the scheduler to execute on three different tasks Task A, B, and C Also, have setup the scheduler's heartbeat to 20seconds There are no further specific configurations. It works well.
Have turned on the debug log, and notice that there is a constant output from the tasks there: 2014-04-01 23:36:16,642 - web2py.app.myapp - DEBUG - result: "Done: Task A" 2014-04-01 23:36:17,407 - web2py.app.myapp - DEBUG - new task report:COMPLETED 2014-04-01 23:36:17,408 - web2py.app.myapp - DEBUG - result: "Done: Task B" 2014-04-01 23:36:18,180 - web2py.app.myapp - DEBUG - new task report:COMPLETED 2014-04-01 23:36:18,180 - web2py.app.myapp - DEBUG - result: "Done: Task C" 2014-04-01 23:36:18,944 - web2py.app.myapp - DEBUG - new task report:COMPLETED 2014-04-01 23:36:18,944 - web2py.app.myapp - DEBUG - result: "Done: Task A" 2014-04-01 23:36:19,719 - web2py.app.myapp - DEBUG - new task report:COMPLETED 2014-04-01 23:36:19,719 - web2py.app.myapp - DEBUG - result: "Done: Task C" 2014-04-01 23:36:20,486 - web2py.app.myapp - DEBUG - new task report:COMPLETED 2014-04-01 23:36:20,486 - web2py.app.myapp - DEBUG - result: "Done: Task A" 2014-04-01 23:36:21,260 - web2py.app.myapp - DEBUG - new task report:COMPLETED 2014-04-01 23:36:21,260 - web2py.app.myapp - DEBUG - result: "Done: Task B" 2014-04-01 23:36:22,045 - web2py.app.myapp - DEBUG - new task report:COMPLETED 2014-04-01 23:36:22,045 - web2py.app.myapp - DEBUG - result: "Done: Task C" 2014-04-01 23:36:22,819 - web2py.app.myapp - DEBUG - new task report:COMPLETED 2014-04-01 23:36:22,819 - web2py.app.myapp - DEBUG - result: "Done: Task A" 2014-04-01 23:36:23,598 - web2py.app.myapp - DEBUG - new task report:COMPLETED 2014-04-01 23:36:23,598 - web2py.app.myapp - DEBUG - result: "Done: Task B" 2014-04-01 23:36:24,372 - web2py.app.myapp - DEBUG - new task report:COMPLETED I wasn't sure what to make of it. Looks like the tasks are running at a pace much higher than what I expected. Initially, I suspected that the heartbeat -20seconds - determines the frequency of the tasks. And then I re-read the section on the task's period-repeat combination. Now am a bit lost. I need to run one of the tasks in a once in 24hours cycle. So intend to use the period/repeat combination for that task. The other tasks need to run once every minute or so. My intention is to ensure that the number of times the tasks hit the db is not too frequent. More importantly can someone help me understand what the timing in this log means, and why the tasks are running at this high a frequency? Thank you.
