I have a quick update on the Schedule Maintenance Mode RESKIT Tool, also some information \ best practices.
Best Practices:
-
Do not go beyond 20 Jobs scheduled. Anything over this will start to place too much load on your Root Management Server
-
Do not schedule more then 20 items in one Job. If you need to go over this please create a group and target this. Note: The MP has a bug that only limits you to select up to six objects. I have attached an updated MP that corrects this issue below.
-
When scheduling a group make sure to select system.group then select the group. If you select the group itself the tool lists the individual group membership.
Known Issues:
-
A common issue with our international customers is a date time casting exceptions or the schedule is not landing on the correct day. This tool was designed and tested on EN-US only. I cannot make any promises but I will look into extending this to support other locals in the future. The work around is to install the Windows EN-US language pack.
