Which solution/feature contain given Timer Job in Sharepoint 2010?

Question

How can I get solution that contain given Timer Job in Sharepoint 2010?

Answer 1

I am not sure is there any direct ways to find this information. Timer Jobs are normally created through a Feature Receiver. This receivers are embedded inside assemblies, which is deployed into GAC.

So first find out all features which has a feature assembly

Get-SPFeature | Where-Object { $_.ReceiverClass -ne "" } 

Now look the ReceiverClass and see any name is matching with the timer job name.

Next get the solution using Get-SPSolution
