Sharepoint Timer Job Paused

I have created couple of custom timer job and it was working as expected without any issues.

One day when I start the job manually (since I need to pull the data other system and push it to sharepoint list, which was as needed), and it started running without any issues.

But after couple of minutes it started showing paused along with other OOB timer jobs.

This seems to be more interesting why all of sudden all the jobs went to pause state.

Then I started looking all the jobs carefully and I can see there is job called "timer service recycle" which was alone running(couple of instance one in WFE and another one in APP).

Then I started looking into more details about this timer job and what exactly it will do is very well documented in below blog.

Timer Recycle Job

This job will start @6AM in morning and it will run for approximately 11 minutes in the farm.

Once this job finishes automatically all other jobs will start running automatically.
