Regarding job schedules where the "upgrade_safe" field is set to False:

I understand that job schedules with the "upgrade_safe" field set to False will not run during the upgrade.

Would it still not work if I used the function to manually run the job schedule?

We would like users to manually perform actions during the upgrade process as needed.

This is a better method than manually updating records, but are there any other options?

NOW Support did not recommend setting the "upgrade_safe" field to True.

Hi @bonsai 

You can run it via background script/ Fix script  as well.

@bonsai 

but why?

Why not click Execute Now manually if you want it to run post upgrade?

[bonsai]

There are processes that I don't want to stop during the upgrade, so I need to find a way to handle this.

However, since "upgrade_safe=False" is recommended, I'm looking for a way to manually execute it as needed.
