Monitoring Avaloq Jobs, Reports and Optional Reports

When you execute an object in Automic Automation, the corresponding task is visible in the list of Tasks in the Process Monitoring perspective. Process Monitoring gives you the full range of possibilities to monitor, analyze, identify, and remediate problems. It displays comprehensive data on active and inactive tasks, it provides tools to filter and group tasks. In this perspective, you can modify active tasks, open their reports, and execution lists and troubleshoot.

If you want to learn more about how to monitor your jobs, please refer to the Automic Automation product documentation at Monitoring Tasks.

For more information on how to work with tasks on the Process Monitoring perspective, refer to the Automic Automation documentation at Working with Tasks.

Canceling and Restarting Jobs

You can execute Jobs and cancel the corresponding tasks in the Process Monitoring perspective. Canceling means that the execution in Automic Automation is aborted. It does NOT mean that the execution on Avaloq is canceled.

Agent Connection

If the Agent stops working or loses connection, the Job execution stops but resumes as soon as the Agent is connected again.

Reports

Using the Rapid Automation page, you can specify how Job reports are saved, and whether they include Agent log information.

  • Database

    • When checked, the Job report is managed in the Automation Engine. After the execution of a Job, the process protocol is transferred to the Automation Engine database via file transfer.

  • File

    • When checked, the Job report is managed in the Automation Engine. After the execution of a Job, the process protocol is available in the target system as a file.

  • Generate on error only

    • When checked, the Job report is stored in the Automation Engine database and/or a file in the target system only if the Job has been canceled. This function is only available when Database and/or File are checked.

  • Agent log

    • When checked, Job reports will include an Agent log tab with an Agent log when there are errors. Keeping this box checked is recommended for troubleshooting purposes.

  • Request task parameters

    • When checked, the information from the Job's Agent-specific tab is available in the pop-up dialog when you execute the Job. From this dialog, you can make one time changes for a single run of the Job. Some fields from RA Agent-specific tabs can only be set in Job definitions. These fields are not included in the pop-up dialog when the Job is requested and the Request task parameters option is checked.
