Scheduling Provisioning Jobs

Keep in mind the following:

•You must have already created a provisioning job. See ”About Path Provisioning” on page 375 for more information.

•You cannot delete a job once it has started. A job has started if it has a state of “started.”

•You can deselect jobs by clicking the check marks or by clicking the Clear Selection () button in the Provision Jobs pane.

You can determine the status of a job by looking in the State column:

•Created - The job has been created, but it will not be executed. The job cannot be viewed by others and it is deleted when the Web browser is closed. See ”Scheduling Provisioning Jobs” on page 399 for information about changing the state of the job from “created” to “scheduled”.

•Scheduled - The job has been tasked to execute at a specified time and date. Jobs are

assigned a scheduled state after you select the job and click the Execute Job button () button.

•Started - The job has started. You cannot delete a job once it has started.

•Failed - The job failed.

•Ended - The job has finished.

To schedule a provisioning job:

1.Click the Create Job button in the lower pane.

The job is given the “created” status. The job, however, is not executed. Keep in mind the following:

•When you close the Web browser window, all jobs with a status of “created” are erased.

•Other users cannot see a job with a status of “created”.

•Change the schedule of job only if its status is “created”. Once you click the Execute Job () icon, the job is saved in the database for the management server and its status changes from “created” to “scheduled”. Thus, it should not be modified.
