A task group is a collection of tasks. A task scheduler service can be configured to process all tasks assigned to a specific task group. For example, task groups can be used to process all tasks meant to run on specific machines.
To create a task group:
- In the Console tree, within the task scheduler in which you want to configure a task group, select the Tasks folder.
- Right-click and select Create Task Group, or select Create Task Group in the Action pane.
- A new task group is created in the Tasks folder. Enter a name for the new task group, then press Enter.
Rename a task group by right-clicking on the task group and selecting Rename, or, with the task group selected, use the keyboard shortcut F2.
Note:
A task group must have a Unity Scheduler service assigned to it before tasks within the group can be run. Services are assigned to task groups during service installation.
