Controlling Jobs

Holding a Job

Selecting "Hold Job" from the "Job Monitoring" menu or context menu suspends a job. All sub-jobs and tasks which are not already running on the target system will be held and not started. The impact for already running tasks depends on the batch sub-system running at the Vsite. If it is not capable to hold submitted tasks these task will finish execution independent of the HoldJob request.

Resuming a Job

Selecting "Resume Job" from the "Job Monitoring" menu resumes a previously suspended job.

Resume Job will also free a job which is waiting due to an included HoldJob task. The HoldJob task has been either specified with option "forever" or the date and time defined in the wait "until" option has not yet expired. In both cases the HoldJob task will be ignored after resuming.
