Feature #21889

Updated by Peter Amstutz 5 months ago

I don't know what component should be responsible for this, but I find myself wanting a way to schedule periodic tasks. 

 For my use case, I want to run automatic housekeeping and reporting tasks.    For example, running a daily/weekly cluster usage report which writes an HTML report to a collection (see #21888) 

 I could envision it used for tasks such as automating data transfer to/from the cluster and chaining tasks from that (such as running analysis). 

 Should discuss if it makes sense to cobble something together in the short term (a smallish task-specific python script running on the shell node) and scale it out.
