Working with the Tasks in the Schedule Monitor

The Schedule Monitor provides detailed information on the progress of the Schedule and of the executions of its tasks. It is available as soon as a Schedule has started. In addition to the toolbar buttons, selecting and right-clicking a task or opening the Task Actions button displays the list of functions available for that task. The status and the type of object determines which ones are available.

This topic provides a list and describes the most common functions. See Working with Tasks for a list of all the functions that are available to tasks. See also Available Functions Depending on the Task Status.

Go Immediately
Option that affects the task that you have selected in the Monitor and that is enabled or not depending on its status. It starts processing the task immediately. Tasks that have a Waiting status start as well. It also starts child tasks.
Reset Task
Option that affects the task that you have selected in the Monitor and that is enabled or not depending on its status. It sets the status of an ended task to its previous status (Waiting for Start Time).
See Example: Scheduling Tasks with Time and Calendar Conditions for an example of how and when to use this function.
Restart
Tasks can be started immediately regardless of their status, start time and conditions. If tasks that are Waiting for start time are started immediately, the next automatic start for this task takes place after the Schedule's period turnaround.
Cancel

Stops processing the task as well as all subordinated tasks that have not yet started.

Tasks that have already started continue running.
Ignore Queue Limit

Starts the task immediately. This option is relevant for tasks that are waiting to start because of missing queue slots (Waiting for Queue slot).

You can perform this action on just one task or you can select multiple tasks and ignore their Queue limit. Bulk ignoring this limit is only possible if all selected tasks have the same Waiting for Queue slot status.
Open Monitor
If Workflows and Jobs are tasks in a Schedule, you can open their monitors from within this list.
In the case of Jobs, you can access their monitor provided the Schedule is active and there already exists a RunID for the job. If the Schedule is in any ENDED or ABENDED status, the Job Monitor is not available.

Executions
