Rescheduling a Monitor Entry

You can reschedule a queued Monitor Entry directly from the JAMS Web Client. Rescheduling lets you change an entry's target Agent, Batch Queue, scheduled time, scheduling priority, or hold state without canceling and resubmitting the Job. Use this when you need to redirect or reschedule a Job that is already queued.

note

Reschedule applies to queued Entries, Jobs that are waiting to run. It does not apply to Jobs that are already executing or have completed. To re-run a completed Job, see Releasing a Monitor Entry.

Before You Begin

  • The Entry must be in a queued state (waiting to run, not yet executing).

Rescheduling a Monitor Entry

Use the following steps to reschedule a single Monitor entry.

  1. Open the Monitor.

  2. Select the entry you want to reschedule by clicking its row.

  3. Do one of the following:

    • Click the Reschedule button in the toolbar.
    • Click the in Actions column on the entry row and select Reschedule.

      The Reschedule drawer opens and displays the following details about the selected entry: Job name, Entry ID, Submitted by, and Submitted at. The editable fields are pre-populated with the entry's current values.
  4. Update the fields you want to change. All fields are optional. Only update what needs to change:

    • Agent - The Agent this entry will run on.
    • Batch Queue - The Batch Queue this Entry is assigned to.
    • Scheduled Time - The date and time the Entry is scheduled to start.
    • Scheduling Priority - The numeric priority of this Entry relative to other entries in the queue. A higher priority value causes the Entry to be processed sooner.
    • Held - Whether the Entry should be placed on hold after rescheduling. Enable this if you want the entry to wait in a held state until you explicitly release it.
  5. Optionally, enter an Audit Trail Comment to record the reason for the change. This comment is stored in the Entry's Audit Trail.

  6. Click Confirm Reschedule to apply the changes, or Dismiss to close the drawer without making changes.

The drawer closes. The Entry's updated values are reflected in the Monitor view. No separate confirmation message is displayed . The Monitor row updates to confirm that the reschedule was applied successfully.

Additional Notes

  • Bulk reschedule is not available. You can reschedule only one Entry at a time.
  • Only certain fields can be modified. Reschedule is limited to Agent, Batch Queue, Scheduled Time, Scheduling Priority, and Held. To change other properties, cancel and resubmit the Job with updated settings.
  • Setting Held pauses the Entry immediately. If you enable the Held option during reschedule, the Entry will not run when its scheduled time arrives. You must release it manually. See Releasing a Monitor Entry.
