How to disable microscheduling for releases before 1.7.3

You can disable the microscheduling in your JobScheduler environment manually by setting the following parameter in ./config/scheduler.xml:

Configuration for scheduler.xml
<config>
...
	<params>
    	<param name="scheduler.old_microscheduling.enable_for_jobs" value="false"/>
	</params>
...
</config>

 

A restart of JobScheduler is required to apply this setting.
