General Options Page

The General Options page contains basic execution options for the job

Ignore conditions for the job

If this option is checked, adTempus will ignore any conditions that are defined for the job (this forces the job to execute even if the conditions are not met). Conditions at the step level are not ignored (see next option).

Ignore conditions for individual steps

If this option is checked, adTempus will ignore any conditions that are defined for steps of the job (this forces the step(s) to execute even if the conditions are not met).

Force a new instance of the job if necessary

This option overrides the Multiple Instances option for the job, forcing adTempus to start a new instance of the job even if another instance is already running.

Force the job to run even if the queue is held

If this option is checked, adTempus runs the target job regardless of whether the Queue to which it belongs is held. If the option is not checked, the target job will not be run if the Queue is held.

adTempus runs the job regardless of whether the job itself is held.

Override queue limits and force the job to run immediately

If this option is checked, adTempus runs the job immediately, even if the Queue to which it belongs is currently at its quota for the maximum number of concurrent jobs. That is, this option will force the Queue to exceed its limit if necessary.

Run only on Master

If this option is checked, adTempus runs the job only on the Master computer, even if the job is associated with Agents.

To run the job only on a specific agent, select the agent from the Agents list and use the Run command on the pop-up menu.

Force job to run on Master

If this option is checked, adTempus runs the job on the Master, even if the Queue's Run on Master option is not checked.

Save the selected options as the default options

When this box is checked, adTempus remembers your choices for all of the above settings (settings in the "Options" group) and makes them the default the next time you run a job manually.

Make the job visible on my desktop

This option is available only if you are running the Console on the same computer where the adTempus service is running. When this box is checked, it overrides the job's User Interaction settings and causes adTempus to run the job in your current Windows logon session, if possible. This ensures that you will be able to see any windows shown by programs that the job runs.

Responses

Choose which Responses you want to execute (this option applies to Responses for the job and for steps within the job):

Checkpoint

Specify the checkpoint to pass to the job.
