Storix Software SBAdmin TSM Edition Users Guide - Manual (Page 58)

A scrollbar is provided to the right to scroll up and down the messages. This screen may only be displayed
if the Backup Administrator application is running. When you
Close this window, the messages will be
removed from the log and cannot be displayed again.
If a job completes successfully, or if it fails after having begun the backup, a Label button will appear within
the text of the message. By pressing this button, the media label will be displayed, which provides a
summary of the contents of the media, both for the current job and any prior jobs, if any. Refer to the
Backup Labels section for a sample and information on the label contents.
This window appears each time a new message is posted. Once the window is closed using the Cancel
button , it will not be possible to view the previous message contents.
Manipulating Backup Jobs
To change the status of a job in the queue, you must select the queue and job on the Job Queue Display
screen. The action buttons at the bottom of the screen under the Queue Actions and Active Job headings then
apply to the selected jobs. The following functions may be performed:
Kill a Running Job
Jobs that are currently running may be killed, or canceled, by selecting the Kill Job button from the Main
Screen when the Job Queues are displayed. A signal is sent to the job telling it to terminate. Depending on
the current backup operation being performed, this may take a little time. Once the job has been killed, a
message will appear on the
Job Message Screen indicating that the backup has been terminated.
A backup job which was killed may have already created a Backup Label. If so, the label will indicate any
client backups that have already completed, and will show the backup job status as failed. If no backup
completed, you may want to remove the label at this time. To do so, display the label either by selecting the
Label button in the Job Message Screen or the Backup Status Screen .
Place a Job on Hold
A job which is currently in the pending state may be placed on hold by pressing the Hold Job button from
the Main Screen when the Job Queues are displayed. When a job is placed on hold, it will not run when any
prior backups complete, but will remain in the queue waiting to be manually started.
