The Jobstream Runs - Grid provides an alternative, tabular visualization of the filtered set of jobstream runs displayed in the Jobstream Runs - Timeline page.

On this page, each row represents a single jobstream run. There can be multiple jobstream runs for each jobstream.

See also Monitoring Current Jobstream Runs on the Timeline Page (Web UI).

This page describes the Jobstream Runs - Grid page and its associated functions:

Overview

jobstream grid page

The Jobstream Runs - Grid page is divided in three areas. This illustration highlights them:

  1. The title and main toolbars in the top part of the page has Jobstream Runs in the upper left corner, and the rest can be thought of in two parts, the left and the right parts:

    1. In the larger left part of the top section are the information about and controls for the current view and filters.

      • In large, bold letters is the name of the current saved view. followed by the buttons to manage the save views. For information, see Saving Views on the Jobstream Runs Grid.

      • Below the view name and next to the filter symbol you see any filter settings that are applied to this page to restrict the run data that is displayed. For more information, see Filtering in the Jobstream Runs Grid Page.

        Note

        The filter settings on the Jobstream Runs - Grid page and the Jobstream Runs - Timeline page are synchronized so that the jobstreams included on the two pages are consistent as you switch from one to the other. So, when you change the filters on one page and switch to the other page, the same filters apply there, too.

        This also happens when you have used a saved view in the Grid page. If you change the filter settings on the Timeline page and switch back to the Grid page, the filters from Timeline view will have overridden the filters that were applied by your saved view. If you want to remove them, click Reset Filter or Reset View. Of course, with this, you change the filter settings on the Timeline view as well. For information, see .Saving Views on the Jobstream Runs Grid

    2. In the right part of the top section are additional tools

      • The Auto Refresh toggle.

        When the Auto Refresh toggle is on, AAI automatically refreshes this page in the interval defined by your AAI administrator in the AAI Configuration Tool.

      • The + Add Jobstream button that you can use to create and define a new jobstream.

  2. The table toolbar above the table headings and to the right contains the following:

    • The last time at which run data was fetched, whether automatically at the configured refresh interval or manually. This is followed by the Refetch Data button to its right. Click the button at any time to manually refetch the run data and refresh the page immediately.

    • The Column Selector tool

      It allows you to choose which columns you want to show or hide in your table. For more information, see The Column Selector.

    • Export button

      Click the Export button the data that you have filtered and are viewing currently to a CSV file. For more information, see Exporting Table Data.

  3. The main part of the page contains a table of all jobstream runs that match the filter criteria that are currently applied to the page.

The List of Jobstream Runs

All jobstream runs shown correspond to the filtered set of jobstream runs displayed in the Jobstream Runs - Timeline page. You can use the Columns tool to customize which columns are shown or hidden, see Showing/Hiding Columns.

Note:

Even if you select Hide all, the Jobstream Name, Start Time and End Time columns are displayed.

The Default Columns on the Jobstream Runs Grid View

The following columns appear on the Jobstream Runs Grid view by default:

  • Jobstream Name

    Name of a jobstream. This is a link that opens the jobstream details to the Actual view on the Run Details tab. For information, see Jobstreams Run Details - Actual.

  • State

    The state of the jobstream run, which can be Completed, In Progress, or Forecasted.

  • SLA Status

    An icon indicating whether the jobstream run is Completed, In Progress, or Forecasted followed by the percentage the run is early/late based on the SLA.

  • Early (-) / Late (+)

    The amount of time early/late that the jobstream is calculated to be. This is based on the user defined early/late criteria, if it is defined. Otherwise, this is based on a system determined average.

  • % Complete

    The percentage of the total jobstream runtime (the difference between the Start Time and End Time) that has already completed.

  • Start Time

    The date and time in which the jobstream run started. This is a link that opens the Gantt view for the run. For more information, see The Gantt View for a Jobstream Run.

  • End Time

    For completed runs, this is the end date and time of the jobstream run.

  • SLA Time

    The date and time of the SLA deadline for the specific jobstream run.

Additional Columns That Are Always Available

Optionally, you can also show the following columns on the Jobstream Runs Grid view. To show them, select them from the Columns menu in the toolbar.

  • Scheduler

    The underlying scheduler where the jobs in the jobstream actually run. This column is always visible and you cannot hide it.

  • Description

    If the jobstream definition contains a description, it is displayed here.

  • Target Job

    The name of the target job for the jobstream. The target job name is a link that opens the job details page on the Basic Information tab. For information, see Job Details.

  • As of Time

    The meaning of this value is different depending on the jobstream run state:

    • For a Completed jobstream run, you see the Actual End Time.

    • For an In Progress jobstream run, you see the time at which predictions were updated.

    • For a Forecasted jobstream run, you see the Forecasted Start Time.

  • Average End Time

    This is the average end time of the jobstream, which is calculated based on the average end times of its jobs and considering all the jobstream runs so far.

  • Total Jobs

    Total number of jobs in the jobstream.

  • Completed Jobs

    Total number of jobs in the jobstream that have been completed so far in this run. For completed runs, this is the total number of jobs that ran in the jobstream run.

  • Currently Running Jobs

    The names of all jobs that were running at the time the most recent data was fetched. You see that time in the right side of the toolbar above the table.

  • Elapsed Time

    The amount of time (in HH:MM:SS format) that the jobstream has been running since the start time. For completed runs, this the total runtime.

  • Jobs in Critical Path Count

    Number of jobs in the jobstream run that are part of the jobstream's critical path.

  • Business Area

    The business areas to which this jobstream is assigned.

  • Average Duration

    The average duration of the jobstream, which is based on historical runs.

Additional Columns for AutoSys Jobstreams

what-if,AutoSys predictions

For AutoSys schedulers using he V1 prediction model, when jobstream runs are not predicted to finish (NPTF), AAI makes a What-if predictions, including a predicted end time. For these predictions. the system assumes that any jobs that are currently in a failure or on-hold status are started or re-started Now. AAI uses the outcome of that What-if scenario to show how the jobstream would progress and whether you would meet your SLA.

These columns are only populated for jobstreams of AutoSys v1 schedulers that are NPTF. For all other schedulers and run statuses, they are empty. Therefore, the columns are hidden by default.

Note:

This feature is available only for AutoSys schedulers that have been added to AAI with the Classic (V1) prediction model. For more information, see the Advanced settings described in the steps for Adding/Editing/Deleting AutoSys Schedulers.

The following are the What-if columns that are populated with prediction data for NPTF jobstream runs of AutoSys v1 schedulers:

  • What-if Early(-)/Late(+)

    The amount of time that a jobstream run is predicted to be early or late. Early predictions have negative time amounts (-), whereas late predictions have positive time amounts (+) .

  • What-if % Completed

    Based on the predicted completion time for a jobstream run, the percentage of the total jobstream runtime (the difference between the Start Time and End Time) that has already completed.

  • What-if Predicted End Time

    The predicted end date and time of a jobstream run.

  • What-if Status

    The jobstream run status based on the predicted outcome.

Remember, all predictions are based on "what if the jobstream were to start or re-start to run now."

Filtering in the Jobstream Runs Grid Page

filter data in the grid page,filter runs in the grid page,filter jobstream runs in the grid page

Applying filters allows you to customize the data displayed in the Grid page to better suit your needs. On this page, you can apply the following filter attributes:

  • % Complete

  • Business Area

  • Completed Jobs

  • Currently Running Jobs

  • Date Range

  • Jobs in Critical Path Count

  • Jobstream Name

  • Scheduler

  • State

  • Total Jobs

You can also define further filter parameters for each attribute to narrow down the list even more. The parameters available in the dropdown menu are directly related to the attribute that you have selected.

In the Jobstream Runs - Grid page, the Jobstream Name filter attribute is populated with text and, as such, all filter parameters available refer to text searches:

  • Equals
  • Not equals
  • Contains
  • Does not contain
  • Starts with
  • Does not start with
  • Ends with
  • Does not end with

The % Complete, Completed Jobs, Currently Running Jobs, Jobs in Critical Path Count, and Total Jobs attributed refer to specific value; therefore, the you can apply the following value-related filters:

  • Equals
  • Not equals
  • Greater than
  • Greater than or equal to
  • Less than
  • Less than or equal to

The Date Range attribute is always set and displayed by default because the Jobstream Run - Grid page needs a time frame as reference. You cannot remove it, you can only adapt it.

Note:

You can add multiple attributes to your filter; they are put together as AND conditions, which means all conditions must be true. You can also add more than one filter parameter for each attribute. These values are put together as OR conditions, which means any criteria can be true.

For more information on how to define and apply filter attributes and filter parameters in the AAI web interface, see Using Filters.
