Scheduler tasks

Each Scheduler task in a job has two sections of task properties:

Task Control: Common task properties that apply to all task types. For more information, see Task Control properties.
Task Details: Properties specific to the current task type. For more information, see the topics for each individual task type.

The following task types are available:

Task	Description
