Agenda Job: now() make the job running multiple times

Question

I am scheduling an Agenda Job as below:

await agenda.now("xyz");

But the above command makes my job running almost every 1 minute. But when I change it to

await agenda.every('5 minutes', "xyz");

The above works as expected i.e. it runs the job every 5 minutes.

But I don't want a recurring job. Rather run it once.

What is the context in which you are calling `.now`? – tbking Oct 14 '18 at 13:47 — tbking, Oct 14 '18 at 13:47

The issue was with the concurrency of the job definition. It was set to 10 because of which several instances of the same job were running in parallel.

Changing the concurrency to 1 solved the issue.
