Every time a server is restarted (scheduled or unscheduled), it triggers the re-load of the analysis files in the Scheduled Updates. When analyses use large data tables, it takes a long time to run the updates, and when the re-start happens close to the regular scheduled time of the updates, then those get queued up and execute again, once the re-start caused updates are done. This puts a big strain on servers - uses up a lot of memory and eventually starts writing to the disk. It would be nice to have more control over Scheduled Updates - to pause, to be able to stop the update in progress without having to remove an analysis from the Scheduled Updates list, to choose whether or not to run the updates when a server is restarted.

Some useful features added to 7.8 HF-002:
TSS_7.8.0 HF-002 for TIBCO Spotfire® Server 7.8.x (Released: February 24, 2017)
TSS-19365 - Added a configurable delay before scheduled updates are reevaluated on service stop.
TSS-19491 - Added a configurable option to not send scheduled updates to exhausted services.
No, but you can easily disable/enable them. Also there is functionality to avoid sending too many SUs to a server.
This request was for 7.0.1. So you are saying that in 7.5 and higher versions, you can choose whether or not to run Scheduled Updates upon a server reboot or IIS restart?
A lot of this is already implemented in 7.5+. What version is this request for?
