Column | Description |
Name | The name of the queue. |
Type | Displays the type for each queue: Process, Schedule, or Pool: • A Process queue executes entries in the order they are added. • A Schedule queue executes entries according to their scheduled execution time. • A Pool queue pools all the entries that are created for the queue and then executes each queue entry independent of other entries. The entries are not scheduled; instead, they are executed in the order entered in the queue as resources become available. However, the actual order of execution and, therefore, the order of completion is not guaranteed. Administrators cannot create a queue of this type from the Queue Management table. Creating this type of queue requires custom code. |
Status | Indicates whether the queue is started or stopped. When a queue is started, it is in an active state and tasks are processed. When a queue is stopped, it becomes inactive and no tasks are processed until the queue is restarted. When a queue is disabled, the status becomes Stopped. To change queue status, use the start and stop icons at the top of the table. |
Enabled | Indicates whether the queue is enabled or disabled. If a queue is enabled, Enabled appears in the column and the queue starts automatically at runtime. If the queue is disabled, Disabled appears in the column and the queue does not start automatically at runtime. See Enabling and Disabling Queues. |
Group | Displays the group to which the queue is assigned. If the queue has no group assignment, the value is Default. See Assigning Queues to Groups. |
Total Entries | Displays the total number of queue entries for the queue. |
Waiting Entries | Displays the number of entries waiting in the queue. |
Severe/Failed Entries | Displays the number of entries that have failed or have returned a severe error. For information about what to do about queues that have a status of either Failed or Severe, see Performing Regular Queue Maintenance. |
