Main Features

Calendar Management

JobScheduler Calendars provide a sophisticated method of specifying the days on which scheduling events are to occur. Calendars are lists of days on which orders, jobs and schedules are planned to be executed. Calendars can be defined as either working days or non-working days and can be both combined and reused.

File Transfer History

The File Transfer History interface provides detailed information about the file transfers that have been initiated by the JobScheduler Masters reporting to the JOC Cockpit. This view is used to monitor and control file transfers and allows user interaction. Transfers that have been suspended can be restarted.

Adaptable and Configurable

Users can adapt the information shown in the JOC Cockpit and configure their own filters to show what is most important for the tasks in hand. This includes configurable widgets in the Dashboard.

Authentication and Authorization

The authentication and authorization allows roles and permissions for functions in the GUI to be finely differentiated, for example, granting application managers access to job starting and stopping functions and limiting business users to a read-only role.

Authentication can be performed against a directory service that is accessible via LDAP, such as an Active Directory. Support for secure LDAP Configuration has been improved.

See our JOC Cockpit Features article for a full list of the features introduced with the JOC Cockpit.

Licensing

The JOC Cockpit is available for use under the same dual Open Source and Commercial Licenses as the JobScheduler Master and all its features can be used with the Open Source license.
