Hello All,
I am trying to deploy a powershell script that will run spread out of the course of 24 hours.
I set the action start time to be staggered over 1440 minutes as the powershell script involves some server overhead I wanted to really spread out.
I started the action at 5:07 PM Friday night, and as of 5:16 PM Monday it is just over 53% complete.
Can anyone weigh in on where I went wrong with my logic? 24 hours in a day * 60 minutes is 1440 minutes in a day, so that’s what I used.
I had a similar task set for another site and used 2880 minutes and its just over 27% complete now. Did I quadruple my minutes somehow?
See the following for the details on the first distribution. The task it self is small and quick and take only a moment to run.
Does the action End date come into play at all?
