Job Window
■
Execution Start Time is the time when the job started or was deleted. Because
the order of agent notifications may vary, it is possible that the Console receives
a completed or failed notification before a running notification. If this happens,
the start time displays Unknown.
■
Execution End Time is the time when the job finished, failed, or was deleted.
You can double-click on a job listed in the Job History page to display the Job
property sheet and view the Job Output dialog box, if output exists for the job. If no
output is produced by a job, a message displays that states that there is no output
for the job. If the output includes only blank spaces, the dialog box is blank.
Saving Job History
You can save the jobs from the Job History page to a text file, then clear the jobs
from the Job History window. This prevents the Job History page from being
overloaded with obsolete jobs that occurred in previous days.
Job Library
Job Library contains a list of the jobs that you have created and saved. These jobs
can be submitted to the job system at a later date. This is useful if you want to
submit the same job at different times. You can use the Modify Saved Job menu
option to modify a job selected in this page.
■
Job Name is the name of the job.
■
Job Description is the user supplied description of the job.
You can double-click on a job listed in the Job Library page to modify the job.
