Job management console

The job management console is a stand-alone web interface we can use to perform job operations such as submit, monitor, schedule, and manage.

The job management console is for managing jobs. This console provides controlled access when security is enabled.

Only authorized users granted the lrsubmitter role, the lradmin role, or both roles through the administrative console can be allowed access to the job management console.

When role-based security is enabled, we must be granted the lrsubmitter role, the lradmin role, or the lrmonitor role through the administrative console to access the job management console. When group-based security is enabled, we must be in the user group of the job or the administrative group to access the job management console.

When the security enabled is based on the group and the role, we must be in the appropriate group and the appropriate role to access the job management console. We must be in the user group of the job or the administrative group. We must also be in the lrsubmitter role, the lradmin role, or the lrmonitor role.

Through the job management console we can:

• Submit jobs
• Monitor job execution
• Perform operational actions against jobs
• View job logs
• Manage the job repository
• Manage job schedules

Some of the specific actions that we can execute through the job management console include the following:

• Submit job schedules with a preferred processing time

• Configure job schedules so that they can, for example, occur or recur on a specific time of day or week

• Choosing to delay the submission of a job by specifying the start date and time of when we want to run the job

To access the job management console:

1. Configure the job scheduler.

2. Ensure that the job scheduler is running.

   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.

3. In a browser, type the web address:
   http://job_scheduler_server_host:port/jmc

4. If an on-demand router (ODR) is defined in the cell, type the web address:
   http://odr host:80/jmc

5. 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.

To access the field help for the job management console, click ? on every job management panel.
