Contents Introduction to Windows SharePoint Services Timer JobsCreating Custom Timer JobsConfiguration OptionsDeploying Custom Timer JobsDebugging Custom Timer JobsMany different types of applications require some variation of a scheduled process to run. These processes are used for complex calculations, notifications, and data validation checks, among many other tasks. Windows SharePoint Services is no exception. To return relevant and timely results to users’ search queries, the content within a server farm must be indexed ahead of time. This indexing is performed at scheduled intervals. Search is only one example; another example might be sending nightly or weekly e-mail messages to users who want to be notified when changes occur in a SharePoint list. These scheduled tasks are handled by the SharePoint Timer service, a Windows service that is set up as part of the installation process.The SharePoint Timer service is similar to tasks that you can create in any version of Windows by using the Task Scheduler application. The major benefits of using the SharePoint Timer service compared with Windows Task Scheduler jobs is that the timer service knows the topology of the server farm, and you can load balance the jobs across all the servers in the farm or tie them to specific servers that run particular services.The timer job that is demonstrated in this article serves to replace the warmup script.
