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 you

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 may require confirmation (from the end user) before it is

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

Stopping jobs in the Jobs Queue

Select the check box next to the job from the Jobs Queue and click Stop to halt 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.

Removing jobs in the Jobs Queue

Select the job from the Jobs Queue, and click Remove to delete that particular job.

NOTE: You must first Stop a job and then it can be Removed from the queue. This only applies if

that particular job is running at the time. If the job is in the queue, it can be removed without

stopping it first. You can select multiple jobs together and remove them from the

Jobs Queue.
