iBot missed daily and weekly jobs due to service down, how to reschedule missed jobs

We have hand full of power users, who use iBot extensively. Some of the users have over 20 jobs running on daily or weekly basis. One perfect Monday morning, I disovered iBot services were down while rest of the BI was working. I was getting calls from all over the place, so I checked the server.


Although I started the BI scheduler service and BI Delivers seemed to be working ok, what do we do with the missed jobs? Rescheduling hundreds of missed jobs would take entire day? That’s too painful. Thankfully, in BI Job Manager, there is an option to reschedule the missed job, simply by right clicking and selecting option ‘Run Now’. This option does not messed with the schedule, and that way job will pick up regular schedule next day automatically.
