• State: Indicates one of the following states:
• “Running” – Either Actively doing work, waiting for some trigger condition, or
waiting for a required resource to become available
• “Suspended” – Not doing any work until you manually resume it
• “Ended” – Finished its work and cannot be resumed or restarted (However,
you can start another job to do the same thing if needed).
• “Deleting” – Performing a cleanup action such as rewinding a physical tape.
Once the cleanup finishes, the job will disappear from the database.
•
Status: Indicates the progress of a job in the “Running” state.
For further details, see the “Activity monitor”.
You can suspend a job manually by selecting the job in the table, right-clicking for a
popup menu, and selecting “Suspend”. Some jobs may also suspend themselves
under certain circumstances. For example, if a copy from virtual tape to physical tape
encounters a problem with the physical tape, then the HSTC will automatically sus-
pend the job until the user decides what to do. If you try to start a new job that sus-
pends itself immediately, then you will get a popup message to notify you of the
problem.
You can resume a job by selecting the suspended job in the table, right-clicking for a
popup menu, and selecting “Resume”. The job may suspend itself again immediately
if there is a condition that prevents the job from being able to run. In this case, you
must clear the condition before resuming the job. For example, if a copy from virtual
tape to physical tape is suspended because of a problem with the physical tape, then
you must either use a different tape or go to the “Physical tapes” tab, select the phys-
ical tape, right-click for a popup menu, and then choose “Clear error flags”.
