Monitoring jobs
Jobs are long-running tasks that run in the background. You can view a log of all jobs that are started by Lenovo XClarity Orchestrator.
About this task
If a long-running task targets multiple resources, a separate job is created for each resource.
You can see the status and details about each job in the jobs log. The jobs log can contain a maximum of 500 root jobs. When the maximum size is reached, the oldest root job that completed successfully is deleted, including all subtasks and logs for that job. If there are no jobs that completed successfully in the log, the oldest jobs that completed with warnings are deleted. If there are no jobs that completed successfully or with warnings in the log, the oldest jobs that completed with errors are deleted.
