Monitoring Production Jobs

Use the Command Center Main Console to monitor the state of all production jobs for your applications.

Regularly check the status of jobs and tasks to track:

· Whether a job has completed successfully

· Which tasks completed successfully

· Why a job failed

You can use the Command Center to correct problems, restart or cancel failed jobs, and accept, reject, and purge individual volumes. See Canceling and Retrying Failed Jobs.

For each eaDirect application, the Main Console lists each configured job type alphabetically. Although there can be multiple instances of an individual job for an application, the Main Console can display only one, so it chooses a representative job instance. eaDirect sorts all job instances first by status "ranking" and then by last run time in reverse chronological order. It selects the top-most instance from that list as the representative instance.

Command Center Main Console
Column	Description
Application	Name of the eaDirect application.
Job Name	Name of the job.
Job Type	The purpose of the batch job: Indexer, Email Notification, Purge Apps, etc.
Last Run	Date and time the representative job instance ran.
Run Time	Elapsed time the representative job instance has been running in hours, minutes, and seconds.
Status	Current execution state of the representative job instance.
Next Run	Date and time the job is scheduled to run next. (This applies only to the job and not a particular instance.)
Action	Displays a button that lets you take action on that job. The Run Now button lets you run the job once immediately, overriding the scheduling parameters (except concurrency parameters). The Retry button lets you retry all failed instances of the job.

Note that the Main Console does not show any activity until you create one or more applications and jobs.

To list jobs for a particular application only:

· On the Main Console, click the name of the application in the Application column. The Edit Application page appears, showing only those jobs defined for the selected application.

To sort jobs listed on the Main Console by application:

· Click the word Application in the column header.

To sort jobs on the Main Console by job name (alphabetically), job type, last run, run time, status, or next run:

· Click the column header.

To display the current information on the Main Console:

· Click the Refresh button.
