Launched: Run Job Now tool

Published by bigBert on Tagged Scheduled Jobs / CRON, Web Hosting Blog, Web Hosting Guides

Last July, PowWeb launched a new feature on their Control Panel, specifically on the CRON or scheduled jobs section. The new tool could be useless for PowWeb’s orfinary customers but it could save a lot of time and effort for advanced users.

The new tool is called “Run Job Now” and can be accessed from the Scheduled Jobs section of the OPS. It helps users to test their script or cron jobs functionality without waiting for the “job” to be processed automatically by the server. Since all cron jobs are scheduled, users will not be able to determine the results rightaway. They would have to wait for the nearest schedule, mostly every hour or every 30 minutes, before they would know the outcome of the cron job. The new “Run Job” tool will help help the users to test the cron’s functionality without waiting for its scheduled run time.
