Deleting a Component or Repeating Component Job

This topic describes the procedure for deleting a component job. You can only delete component jobs that have a Status field of Creating. After the component job has been started, you can only cancel the component job. To cancel a component job, see Cancelling a Component or Repeating Component Job.

NOTE:  You can also delete component jobs by setting the Delete Interval and Delete Units field while creating the component job. See Starting a Component Job for details on setting these fields. After the component job has been started, these fields are read-only.

For further information on administering component jobs, see Administering Component Jobs.

2. From the link bar, click Jobs.
3. In the Jobs list, select the component job that has a Status field value of Creating.
