Repeating Maintenance Task on Group is Not Repeating

Deadline
1

I have created a maintenance job that I want to run on certain machines every day. Pretty sure this is set correctly as there is not much to it.

However, I have noticed that after executing once, it has not repeated since (a few days now). From reading around I get the impression that the job is supposed to put itself back into a pending state, but it is not doing that, it’s just sitting there in a partially completed state.

It seems to be the case that workstations that are not available to render (because in this case they are not in the group that the job is operating on) will cause the job to never be complete, and thus never go back to a pending state.

Is there a way to fix this?

If you add a stop time will that finish the job, therefore resetting it for the day after?

If the repeating option isn’t working, can you try the custom options below?

If you add a stop time to the job (in the scheduling panel) then I believe that means the job will just not even try to execute again after that time.

The custom options do not have a repeating option, so once the job is complete, it is finished and will not go back to a pending state.
