The backup or restore jobs created by you can be administered anytime. You
can delete, hold, reschedule, abort, or enable a job.
Jobs can be managed either from the server or from the workstation.
From the Server
On the SBCON Main Menu at the server, the Current Job List option gives you
a job management facility where you can delete a job, hold a job, or enable it
if it has been disabled after a job failure. You can even monitor the status of
the backup/restore jobs you have submitted.
Current Job List provides the following information about all jobs submitted.
The name of the server from which the job was submitted. If you
initiated the job from the client, locate the workstation name. See
"Viewing the Job Queue" on page
The job name that you entered on the Backup Options form. The job
name can be renamed using the Job Details screen if you are rescheduling
it to run another time and you want to change the name. See
Details" on page
The Hold status. If you want to prevent a prescheduled job from
execution, you can put it on Hold. See
The job status, whether it finished the execution of the request, or if
it was submitted for execution at a later time. Other statuses are: active
currently, could not run, processing, failed, and success. The log of each
of these status reports can be viewed using the log and error reporting. For
more details see
From a Workstation
From Job Administration at the Quick Access window of a Windows
workstation or at the toolbar, you can access the current list of jobs. If you
select a job, you can see the properties, which include the following:
