Cancelling periodic jobs question

[sheldondz]

Is there a way to cancel periodic jobs using the job.ID? the documentation points to

// Remove a periodic job using handle return by Client.PeriodicJobs.Add.
riverClient.PeriodicJobs().Remove(periodicJobHandle)

Will this work even after the client is restarted? or is this only in memory?

[sheldondz]

I have tested this when client is running and it works fine, the periodic job no longer runs when removed using the handle.

After client restart the job stops running, so i am assuming for periodic jobs do we need to reload all the jobs on client restart?

It sounds like you got there already, but yes:

• Individual jobs generated from a periodic job configuration of course get persisted to the database, but periodic job configuration does not. If you want that to survive across restarts, either define it in code, or you'll need to store your own configuration somewhere out of band.
• The periodic job handles that are used to remove a periodic job configuration after being added are not stable across restarts. They're only valid as long as the process is running.

We have the configuration stored so will add the code to reload all periodic jobs on startup. Thanks!
