The Variables page allows you to define Job Variables for this Agent. You can add new Variables, or override the values of Variables inherited from the server level.
Variables you define here will be available to all jobs assigned to this Agent. When a job runs on more than one Agent, it receives the appropriate variables on each Agent.
Job Variables can be used to accommodate differences in the file structure or environment between different Agent computers. For example, suppose you have a job that is being mirrored to three different Remote Agents. This job runs program "myprogram.exe". On two of the Agents, this program is installed in folder "c:\myprogram," but on the third it is installed in folder "c:\program files\myprogram". Your job needs to be able to find the program in the correct folder on each of the three computers.
To accomplish this, you would create a Job Variable named "MyProgramPath" for each of the three Remote Agents, and set this variable to the correct path for that Agent. In your job, you would set the target of your Program Execution step to "%MyProgramPath%\myprogram.exe". When the job is executed, adTempus will replace "%MyProgramPath%" with the correct path on each Agent.
