Creating your production jobs:
Make a copy of the example (IT Service Vision prototype) scripts that you located earlier and edit them to work in your
environment. Follow the instructional comments embedded in the example scripts.
If there is no example script for your particular data source, the example scripts for other data sources will probably still

2. Schedule the production job(s).

i. Start SDE from within SpectroGRAPH by selecting
File -> Export Data...
ii. To open the Export Definition Description that you created earlier for exporting the archived data, select
File -> Open...
Select the name of the export Definition Description that you created in Section 1 Task 2: Start Your Data
Collection Software. The suggested name was exp_def_desc_1.sde. Review the settings to make
sure everything is correct for batch processing. For instance, the model data set and statistics data set
should be marked for export and the range should probably be a relative specification like DAY rather than
custom.
iii. To set up regular export intervals, select
File -> Schedule Export...
If you need more information on scheduling automatic data export, see the SPECTRUM Data Export
User’s Guide.
