Verify the job scheduler installation

This topic describes how to verify that the job scheduler is installed correctly. The job scheduler is a system application and is not in the list of installed applications on the Enterprise applications page of an administrative console.

Privileges for the job scheduler differ, depending on the various roles. Roles include monitor, operator, configurator, and administrator. If we are a user with either a monitor or an operator role, we can only view the job scheduler information. If we have the role of configurator or administrator, we have all the configuration privileges for the job scheduler.

1. Verify that the job scheduler is installed correctly by restarting the application server or cluster members where the job scheduler is configured.

   If the application server or cluster members on which the job scheduler is installed have the started icon in the status field, the job scheduler is usually running. However, the job scheduler might have a problem and not start. We can verify whether the job scheduler started by checking the log files.

2. After the server is restarted, access the job management console through a web browser by typing http://job_scheduler_server_host:grid_host/jmc.

   The grid_host port is the WC_defaulthost port under the server that you chose for the job scheduler. To find the grid_host port, go to the server in the administrative console, expand ports, and look for WC_defaulthost.

   If we cannot access the job management console, check the appropriate log. If we specified a server in the web address, check the server log. If we specified a cluster member in the web address, check the cluster member log.
