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. Using this feature the

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.

NOTE: Some of the jobs in the Jobs Queue require the end user to confirm them before it is

completed. You can Accept or Reject the job before it goes to the Jobs Queue.

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.
