Monitoring Jobs
You can select multiple jobs or job groups simultaneously.
To select more than one job or job group that are adjacent to each other, hold down the Shift key and select the 
first and last jobs.
To select more than one job or job group that are not adjacent to each other, hold down the Control key while 
selecting the desired job occurrences.
3.
Click Yes at the confirmation prompt.
Remove Job(s) from Schedule will remove any pre-launch job occurrence from the schedule, for any date. Only the job 
occurrence you select is removed. If a job group occurrence is selected, all of the group’s child jobs are removed.
Filtering Jobs in the Job Activity Pane Based on Job Status
To filter a job:
1.
From the Navigator pane, select Operations > Job Activity to display the Job Activity pane.
2.
Click the Filter button on the CWA toolbar or right-click the Navigator pane and select Filter from the context menu 
to display the Job Filter
 dialog.
The statuses that are presently displayed are the ones with a check mark.
3.
Select the agent, owner and job statuses to view.
Moving to Different Dates and Times in the Job Activity Pane
You can view job occurrences for past, present or future days. Each job’s retention history value in its job definition 
determines how far back you can see its job occurrences. The Future Days value in the System Configuration dialog 
determines how far you can see into the future.
Note:
  When you are viewing the current day in the Job Activity pane, you may also see jobs from previous dates if those 
jobs have not yet completed.
To move to different dates and times:
From the Navigator pane, select Operations > Job Activity to display the Job Activity pane.
To move backward one day in the production schedule, right-click in the Job Activity pane and select Prior Day 
from the context menu.
To move forward one day in the production schedule, right-click in the Job Activity pane and select Next Day from 
the context menu.
To move to today’s date and time, right-click the Job Activity pane and select Goto Now from the context menu.
To move to a job’s graphical start location, right-click the job’s record and select Goto Job Time from the context 
menu to display the job’s start time.
Pausing the Production Schedule
You can pause and then resume the production schedule at any time. You can also pause and resume job launching 
without having any affect on scheduling. 
When you pause a production schedule, the master service is stopped and waiting jobs are prevented from running, even 
if their dependencies are met. Jobs that are already in Active status will continue to run on their respective agents; 
however, their updated status (for example, Completed Normally) will not be displayed in the Job Activity pane until 
the master service is restarted.
