  5. Select one of the following options from the Change all Job Statuses to list:

    OptionBehavior
    CancelCancels all jobs for the selected dates. Dependent jobs do not have those dependencies met.
    HoldSuspends processing of all jobs for the selected dates.
    Mark FailedMarks all jobs for the selected dates as Failed.
    Mark Finished OKMarks all jobs for the selected dates as Finished OK.
    Mark FixedMarks all jobs for the selected dates as Fixed.
    Mark Under ReviewMarks all jobs for the selected dates as Under Review.
    ReleasePlaces all held jobs back into a Qualifying state. Jobs start as soon as all dependencies are met.
    RestartPlaces all jobs back in a Qualifying state. Jobs start as soon as all dependencies are met.
    Restart on HoldPlaces all jobs in an On Hold state on restart.
    SkipPlaces all jobs in a Job to be Skipped state until they qualify to start. When jobs qualify, they are skipped and dependencies of subsequent jobs are met.

  6. If the selected action is Restart or Restart on Hold and the date selection contains Container jobs, the Job Containers Action frame appears. Select the action to apply to Container jobs:

    ActionBehavior
    RestartRestarts the Container job and its subschedule jobs one level deep. Nested Container jobs are not affected.
    RebuildRestarts the Container job and deletes the associated subschedule. SAM rebuilds the subschedule and restarts all its jobs.
    NoneRestarts the Container job only; the subschedule is untouched. The Container job closes immediately.
    CustomAssigns a separate action to each Container job individually. Only available when multiple Container jobs exist in the selection.

    When multiple Container jobs are present, a global Job Containers Action selector appears above the individual job list. Selecting Restart, Rebuild, or None applies that action to all Container jobs. Selecting Custom expands the list so you can assign an action to each Container job separately. When multiple dates are selected, the Custom view groups Container jobs by date.

    note

    To collapse the individual Container job list, select any option other than Custom in the Job Containers Action selector.

  7. Select the options in the Job To Update frame for the job statuses to include in the update. Selections act as a status filter — only jobs currently in the selected statuses are affected.

  10. Close the Selection panel when done.

Result: The status change is applied to all jobs matching the selected statuses on the selected dates.
