Monitoring and Controlling Jobs › Drop Resource Dependencies

Drop Resource Dependencies

You can drop some or all of a job's resource dependencies when the job no longer must wait for all its resource dependencies to be met.

To drop resource dependencies

1. Right-click the job in the Monitor perspective.

   A list of job commands appears.

2. Select Drop Resources.

   The Drop Resources dialog opens.

3. Do one of the following:
   • Select a single resource dependency or press the Ctrl key and select multiple resource dependencies in the Resources list box. Click Drop to drop the selected resource dependencies.
   • Click Drop All to drop all resource dependencies at once.
4. (Optional) Enter the command reason in the Reason field.

   Limit: 1024 characters (including the timestamp and the user name)

   Note: We recommend that the reason text not exceed 250 characters. The number of commands displayed in the command log is limited to the size of the command log buffer, which is 1024 characters. For example, if the reason text averages 10 characters per command, the command log displays up to 50 commands; if the reason text averages 250 characters per command, the command log displays up to 4 commands.

   The server drops the appropriate resource dependencies.
