Replacing an agent with a Job Scheduler rule

Use Job Scheduler rules for better scalability, performance, and ease of use compared to agents. Replace an existing advanced agent with a Job Scheduler rule to execute scheduled tasks, such as updating a database of email addresses every day at a specific time.

1. Create a Job Scheduler rule to execute a specific activity. For more information, see Creating a Job Scheduler rule.
2. Disable a corresponding agent by performing the following actions:
   1. In the Dev Studio navigation panel, click Records > SysAdmin > Agents.
   2. Select the agent that you want to disable.
   3. Clear the Enabled check box of the agent that you want to disable.
   4. Click Save.
