Wouldn't it be better to just set it to None (thus disabling it)?

If I use Redis as the job_store and run two processes of aps.start() in two separate containers（docker）, will tasks be executed redundantly?

[caiwenju]

The function of misfire_grace_time is that when the task misses its scheduled execution time, if the time missed is less than this value, the task will still be executed. After setting it to None, the task will not be executed if it misses the scheduled time. What I want is that the task should be executed no matter how long it has been missed. How should I set it?

misfire_grace_time=None is what you want

from the docstring of scheduler.add_job:

:param int misfire_grace_time: seconds after the designated runtime that the job is still
            allowed to be run (or ``None`` to allow the job to run no matter how late it is)
