how to trigger runbook every Monday morning at 6:30?

Silas_Sulser

Hi folks

My boss once came up with a request like: please automatically generate a SR with content XY every Monday morning.

I've solved that request with a powershell script and a scheduled task in combination what worked properly.

Now we've installed Orchestrator and I would like to apply that in Orchestrator.

I already have a runbook for the creation of that specific workitem, what works without any problem.

The problem I'm struggling with is, that I cannot set the trigger in Orchestrator like "every Monday at 6:30 AM" in task scheduler:

In Orchestrator I have only the following options:

Is it possible to set the trigger like "every Monday at 6:30 AM" in Orchestrator somehow?

Many thanks and best regards

Silas

For what you're trying to do with SCO, you'll actually need two separate calendar activities. One to monitor the date/time, the other to verify its within the scheduling "window".



So first, monitor for the time. Second use a "Check Schedule" activity



Here you can define new schedules. As such, here's an example of a Monday schedule -

I don't have Orchestrator installed so I'm speaking from memory,  but I believe you should be able to right-click the runbook tab at the top and click on schedule and add the schedule that way.
