Run SharePoint Timer jobs from PowerShell

We are currently moving from using stsadm to using PowerShell for our SharePoint install scripts.

We have not been able to find an equivilent to this:

stsadm -o -execadmsvcjobs

We have tried putting in a pause, but it varies how long the pause needs to be.

Is there an equivilent command in PowerShell, or could we run this command from PowerShell?

Can we create timer job in SharePoint online?

This way, we can create solutions that have to be iteratively run to process logic at regular intervals. However, in the case of SharePoint Online, Native Timer Jobs cannot be used. Though we can use Windows Service/Task Scheduler to simulate Timer Jobs in SharePoint Online, it is still not a complete cloud solution.

Where are SharePoint timer jobs stored?

The SharePoint Central Administration website has a Timer Job Status page on which you can check the status of a timer job and a Job Definitions page on which you can edit the timer job definition. You can find links to these pages in Central Administration, on the Monitoring page, in the Timer Jobs section.

How do I run a timer in SharePoint 2013 manually?

To start a timer job, execute the Start-SPTimerJob cmdlet with the Identity of the timer job or a timer job variable. Listing 4.26 shows a sample command line. In this scenario, the timer job kicks off when you start it manually. This is the same as selecting the Run Now button in Central Administration.
