Using the original post made by a member: http://forumsstg.arcgis.com/threads/26052-Reconcile-and-Post-script-for-ArcGIS10-ArcGIS-server-10I was able to build a similar script that can be used to reconcile and post versions based upon what you want as an ArcSDE administrator. It then spits out a log file at a location of your choosing so that you can track it. Currently I have this running hourly with a daily compress script at the end of the day. I'm using a SQL SSIS job to run this python script since the Task Scheduler was not reliable.You can build on this to reconcile and post not only to default , but also from version to version.Cheers!
