Job Status and Available Actions

Work with the Job List to make actions, such as start a new job, release a held job, or resume a suspended job, depending on their job status.

You can check the status for each job in the DPX Management Interfaces:

The HTML5-based DPX Management Interface

From the navigation pane, go to Job Monitor. You can see the job list with the Status column.

The Java-based DPX Management Interface

From the Functions Bar, open the Monitor Jobs tab. You can see the job list with the Status column.

The following table outlines the job status and typical actions that you might want to make:

Waiting	You can force a job to begin by selecting the job or jobs you want to start, then click Start or Resume Job on the task panel. The job status changes to Running.
Held	You can release reactivate the scheduled jobs that were held. Follow the instructions in Holding and Releasing Scheduled Jobs.
Suspended	You can resume a job by selecting the job or jobs you want to resume, then clicking Start or Resume Job on the task panel. If the job was running when it was suspended, the job status changes to Running. If the job was waiting when it was suspended, the job status changes to Waiting.
Completed or Failed	You can create and run a new instance of the job by selecting the job or jobs you want to restart, then clicking Start or Resume Job on the task panel. The job status of the new job changes to Waiting and then Running.
