Scheduled Tasks exit/results codes.

Main Topics
Browse All TopicsI have a backup scheduled to run each morning at 7:00 am. When I review the Scheduled Tasks window, the message in the Last Result column indicates '0x1f' and when I view the log regarding that task the message 'Result: The task completed with an exit code of (1f).'
Can someone tell me what this particular error is and where I might find a list of exit codes for the Windows Server 2003 Scheduled Tasks?
Thanks!

It's fine for me that the points are split. It's been awhile since I had that issue -- after a lot of digging, I found out that the error had to do with MS noted problems with their scheduler - that it would fail sometimes if there were too many tasks scheduled (like over 9 or some other ridiculously low number). The fix was complicated by SP4 install which would have had to have been uninstalled to fix... Not worth the effort, we determined. Anyway, we ended up 'working around' the issue by modifying our batch files to do more vs. adding scheduled tasks. Still hung with a system that does not function as advertised - not that that is too abnormal for MS. Guess I shouldn't complain given the number of things that DO work as advertised... Thanks for the responses - sorry about never divvying up the points - basically forgot after never getting a direct hit/resolution. Definitely appreciate the feedback/assistance, regardless.
