Working With Jobs Queue
The Jobs Queue option is available once you launch the Dell Repository Manager. Jobs Queue is a feature which is
added to the Dell Repository Manager to enhance usability. You can control and perform different tasks for various
repositories under the same console using this feature. With the previous versions of the DRM (until DRM 1.4) users
needed to wait for one job to complete before performing another job. Using this feature user can perform, monitor, and
prioritize different jobs at the same time. The tasks can be performed using the Stop, Start, Remove, and Details tabs.
Stopping Jobs In The Jobs Queue
Select the check box next to the job from the Jobs Queue and click Stop to pause that particular job. You can stop a job
at any time while it is running. Once you Start a job that has been stopped, the job restarts from the beginning.
Starting Jobs In The Jobs Queue
Select the job from the Jobs Queue, and click Start to initiate any particular job. Refer to the Status and Progress tab
next to the Job Name tab to check the completion. You need to stop the job that is running first, if you want to change
the order for any job. Also, as soon as you stop the currently running job, the next one in the queue will start to run.
Make sure that there is no job in the queue while you are trying to start a previously stopped job.
NOTE: You can only start jobs that have been stopped previously.
