6.14 Job Configuration Overview
The Jobs section is where the Worker, Profile, and Schedule are all brought together and associated into a comprehensive configuration. This is the final piece that will allow messages to be archived from an email system.
The Worker will not start archiving anything until a created job is bound to a Worker, Schedule, and Profile.
Jobs, like profiles, will not be displayed until the module has been configured. Jobs are module specific. While the majority of the job interface is general to all modules, there are some specific settings.
6.14.1 Jobs
Jobs specify what is to be dredged or downloaded from the messaging system by specifying:
-
Schedule: When the dredge is to take place.
-
Profile: What will be dredged from the messaging system
-
Worker: Who will do the dredging.
-
Jobs: Which mailboxes will be dredged.
-
Expiration Date: When the incoming data can be removed from Retain (optional).
-
Mailboxes: Which mailboxes are to be archived.
Jobs with Multiple Modules
In Retain 4.2 and above, when you create a job with multiple modules you will have to select the module by name before creating the job.
You can select any existing jobs without having to preselect the specific module. If you do select a module, then only the associated jobs will be shown.
