Placing a scheduled job on hold

You can place a scheduled job on hold to prevent the job from running. You can also place the entire job queue on hold to make changes to your environment. Jobs do not run until you change the hold status.

To place a scheduled job on hold

  1. On the navigation bar, click Job Monitor.

  2. On the Job List tab, in the Current Jobs pane, select the scheduled job.

    To select multiple jobs, select a job, and then press the <Ctrl> or <Shift> keys while you click other jobs that you want to select. This allows you to apply Hold Schedule to more than one job at a time, as long as the state of the jobs are the same.

  3. In the task pane, under General Tasks, check Hold Schedule.
