My company currently applies PostgreSQL 10 and windows server 2008 OS.

I need to run a C wrote calculation program in .exe file each month.

However, it is not perfect to double click and run it every month. Furthermore, I would like to be able to run it at anytime where most of the resources are free (like mid-night). So I would like to ask if any of the following would be possible?

  1. Setup a job in pgAgent to auto-run .exe file each month?

  2. And is there a way to get returned info from the running results?

Thanks for anyone who gives any clue.

Windows Task Scheduler would be better suited for this task. You can select your .exe, set a run date/time and frequency. If you provide a user/password, it can run the task even if you are not logged in. See here for a tutorial.
