The WVS Job Monitor
Use the
WVS Job Monitor to view and manage the status of different types of WVS jobs. Select the
WVS Job Monitor icon
in
Quick Links or from the
Representations/Annotations table to access the Job Monitor, or select
WVS Job Monitor in the
Business Administration section of the
Utilities page.
The WVS Job Monitor provides a set of tools to help assess the ongoing health of the publishing sub-system. This information includes:
• Number of jobs for each worker which have been processed
• Number of failed jobs
• Time and date for each job
• Priority of queue
• Submission, start, and end times
• Event that initiated the publishing job
The list of jobs displayed is sensitive to the context level of the user or administrator. For example, a user can see the details for only the jobs that he has submitted, whereas a product administrator sees only those jobs for the current product when the WVS Job Monitor is launched from the Utilities page of that product. The information in the WVS Job Monitor is read-only.
The top section of the WVS Job Monitor window is the Job Summary, which displays a sortable list of jobs. The information in the list is read-only.
You can find detailed descriptions of the
Job Summary and
Job Detail in the Windchill Help topics
Job Summary Fields and
Job Detail.
