SharePoint 2010 Timer Jobs changes

SharePoint 2010 Timer Jobs undergoes changes in the management and in configuration.

Firstly, the most significant change you will see with the new version of SharePoint is the number of Timer Jobs – 21 new jobs been added. If for an ordinary SharePoint 2007 application we had 39 Timer’s Job, then we would have 60 Jobs for SharePoint 2010.

So, those 21 new timer jobs are:

1.Application Addresses Refresh Job
2.Audit Log Trimming
3.Delete Job History
4.Document ID enable/disable job
5.Document ID assignment job
6.Enterprise Server Search Master Job
7.Health Analysis Job
8.InfoPath Forms Services Maintenance
9.Password Management
10.Prepare query suggestions
11.Product Version Job
12.Query Logging
13.Secure Store Service Timer
14.Solution Daily Resource Usage Update
15.State Service Delete Expired Sessions
16.Timer Service Recycle
17.Web Analytics Trigger Workflows Timer Job
18.Windows SharePoint Services Usage Data Import
19.Windows SharePoint Services Usage Data Processing
20.Word Conversion Timer Job
21.Workflow

We need to keep our fingers crossed to know more details about each of these new jobs when the public beta comes out in November. I am very excited to expose more about some of these new addition to SharePoint so do keep watching this space.
