BOEXI How to find the jobs that are running now 1

[ramkrish11]

Hi,

This should be a basic requirement for any administration. but with BOE XI I am stuck.

How do I find a list of jobs that are running right now ?

It tells me 4 jobs are running in CMC>Settings>Metrics but how do I find out which are these jobs, who submitted them etc ? and of course, how to kill these long running jobs ?

Thanks
Ram.

OPen the XI launchpad and click at "Instance Manager" under Administration tools in lasft side frame. Log into to this app and you will see the drop down down which will give you te information you need.

File that one under IGNORANT.

Thanks Techie2.

One more followup question.

When I chose a status like Pending, It wont give me the list of pending instances unless I give a username to go with it. Is that the way it works ?

Also, Any way to sort the resultant list ?

Thanks very much

Per my understanding "by user" is optional. If you have any pending jobs, it should show up for all the users if you leave the field blank.

I usually copy the resultset to Excel and do my sorting there, unless I have spare time to change the code.

If you are familiar with Web Dev, you might want to tweak the code a bit to change sorting order. You can find the source for this app at following path:
