Telligent Community periodically runs some tasks in the background and performs operations that aren't suited for running on every web request. These tasks are configurable and are defined in two places:
- The tasks that should be run on every web server are located in the jobs.config file of your Web folder.
- The tasks that should be run on only one node are in site Manage Plugins tab under Jobs.
Job list
Jobs are plugins.
Some jobs are run in every web environment; some are run only by the Job Service.
