A scrollbar is provided to the right to scroll up and down the messages. This screen may only be displayed
if the Backup Administrator application is running. When you Close this window, the messages will be
removed from the log and cannot be displayed again.
If a job completes successfully, or if it fails after having begun the backup, a Label button will appear within
the text of the message. By pressing this button, the media label will be displayed, which provides a
summary of the contents of the media, both for the current job and any prior jobs, if any. Refer to the
Backup Labels section for a sample and information on the label contents.
This window appears each time a new message is posted. Once the window is closed using the
cancel
button, it will not be possible to view the previous message contents.
Manipulating Backup Jobs
To change the status of a job in the queue, you must select the queue and job on the Job Queue Display
screen. The action buttons at the bottom of the screen under the Queue Actions and Active Job headings then
apply to the selected jobs. The following functions may be performed:
Kill a Running Job
Jobs that are currently running may be killed, or canceled, by selecting the Kill Job button from the Main
Screen when the
Job Queues are displayed. A signal is sent to the job telling it to terminate. Depending on
the current backup operation being performed, this may take a little time. Once the job has been killed, a
message will appear on the Job Message Screen indicating that the backup has been terminated.
If the backup was being performed to tape, the tape will be rewound after a job is
killed. This is necessary to prevent any future jobs from being appended to the same
tape. The tape should be removed from the drive immediately if there are prior
successful backup jobs on the same tape that need to be preserved.
Place a Job on Hold
A job which is currently in the pending state may be placed on hold by pressing the Hold Job button from
the Main Screen when the
Job Queues are displayed. When a job is placed on hold, it will not run when any
prior backups complete, but will remain in the queue waiting to be manually started.
