Chapter 15: Configuring Job Folders

Job folders are user-defined groupings of DPX jobs. Jobs include backup, restore, catalog, and migrate jobs. Procedures for defining jobs are found in Chapter 1.“Backup” and Chapter 1.“Restore”.

Job folders are expressly intended as a convenient vehicle for assigning job privileges to administrator groups. Specifically, on the Configure Administrator window, a job folder is a resource that gets assigned to an administrator group. Only an administrator that belongs to an administrator group that contains the job folder that holds a job can perform certain actions on that job, such as saving it, modifying it, or running it.

A job is assigned to a job folder when the job definition is saved. You can also assign jobs to job folders by dragging them from one job folder to another in the Configure Job Folders window.
