and press Enter. It??™s important to note that Server Core tightens
security considerably, so you need to consider the effect of the new security measures on any tasks
you want to perform. In many cases, you??™ll need to change the security settings of any jobs that you
want to move from other servers to Server Core to ensure they??™ll run correctly.
The second part of Task Scheduler is a graphical utility called Scheduled Tasks that you??™ll
normally find in the Start
Programs
Accessories
Systems Tools folder on a GUI system. This
utility displays all of the tasks you??™ve scheduled. You can also use it to create new tasks, either
directly or by using the supplied wizard. This second part of the Task Scheduler doesn??™t exist in
Server Core, so you won??™t see it discussed in any detail in this book.
WARNING
Standard Server Core tasks aren??™t visible to previous versions of Windows (they are
visible to Vista users).
