Job Server Control

The Job Server Control page is used to setup and maintain the list of job servers in the system. Each job server is identified by the application server's Host Name, Application Server name and the Job Manager Name. This page allows the system administrators to start and stop registering jobs and also update each job manager instance settings such as Current Job Count, Maximum Jobs Allowed, Job Poll Rate, and so forth.
