E.g. if I set a timer to expire every day at midnight, what will happen if one ‘misfire’ (does not trigger the callback because the server is down, for instance) ? I can’t find that in the documentation.
Is there a way to make this timer triggers the callback as soons as the server restart ?
PS: I know about Quartz, i’m evaluating EJB timers as an alternative.
You can use a TimerHandle to make a timer persistent. EJB times were designed to survive container crashes.
See this article for a comparison between EJB times and other scheduler systems like Quartz.
