Job advanced settings

Please check the following advanced settings that apply to each type of job:

  • Log file - select this check box to write a detailed log for diagnostic purposes.
  • Keep job history - specify the number of days to keep the successful job history. Default value: 60.
  • Timezone - allows you to change the timezone of a scheduled job. Timezone affects the scheduler, date/time attribute in Filtering Criteria, and Filename Format. Leave this attribute empty to use a system default timezone.
  • Execution time limit - a job will be aborted if it executes longer than the specified time limit (in minutes). Leave this attribute empty to use a default value. Default value: <not defined>.
  • Keep alive timeout - specify a timeout (in minutes) to terminate the job. Leave this attribute empty to use a default value. Default value: 15.
  • Email notification on completion - activates the notification by email about successful job execution. You can trigger the email notification either every time the job completes successfully or for the first of any consecutive completion message.
  • Email notification on failure - activates the notification by email about failed job execution. You can trigger the email notification either every time the job fails or for the first of any consecutive failure message.
  • Email notification address - specify the email address for notifications. Use a comma to separate multiple email addresses.
