Working with the Job Console

The Library Job Console is a central component that provides the infrastructure for handling jobs across many functional areas. A job is an asynchronous process that you submit to run behind the scenes in Performance Management Architect.

The Job Console enables you to view and manage jobs in one centralized location. Generally, there are two job categories: jobs and job status that need availability across sessions and jobs that are tied to a session.

The Job Console supports the following job types:
