8.4 Stopping a Job

Stop a job whenever you want to temporarily pause versioning or to cease versioning a particular source volume.

  1. In iManager, expand Archive Versioning, then click Archive Jobs.

  2. Select the archive server you want to manage, then wait for the page to refresh.

    For information, see Section 7.2, Configuring Archive Volume.

  3. Select the Jobs tab.

  4. View a report of all its current Archive and Version Services jobs.

    Each entry in the table represents a single job.

  5. In the Jobs Report, select one or more Job check boxes, then click Actions > Stop.

Stopping a job stops the selected jobs gracefully and disables them from running again until you start or schedule each job. The Stopped setting persists through a server reboot. For information, see Section 8.3, Starting or Scheduling a Job.

Stopping a job does not stop the delete policy from running. To stop the delete policy, modify the job’s Delete Policy setting to No Delete Policy. For information, see Section 7.7, Editing a Job’s Properties.

You can also use the <stopped/> tag in the Job element for the particular job in the arkConfig.xml file.
