Batch Service

The Minemax Scheduler Batch Service is a Windows Service that processes batches that have been scheduled using the Minemax Scheduler Batch Optimizer tool.

The Batch Service is installed during the installation of Minemax Scheduler and can be viewed under the Windows Services Manager.

The Minemax Scheduler Batch Service can be installed, uninstalled, started or stopped by navigating to SETTINGS | service in the Minemax Scheduler Batch Optimizer tool.

By default, the Minemax Scheduler Batch Service runs under the built-in LocalSystem account. This account is acceptable for Minemax Scheduler Professional users but may need to be changed for Minemax Scheduler Enterprise users. For Minemax Scheduler Enterprise users, use the Change Service Logon button to change the service logon to an account that has permissions to the Minemax Scheduler Enterprise Database. Please also ensure this account has permissions to run Windows Services.

Users can control how often the Batch Service polls for newly scheduled batches by setting the batch service poll interval.
