Viewing and Updating Threshold Updates

The Threshold Update panel in Daily Job Definition displays the threshold updates defined for the selected job. Each update specifies a job status that triggers the update, the threshold to update, and the new value to set.

  • Select the full screen button at the far right of the panel bar to enter or exit Full Screen mode.
  • When the panel contains defined threshold updates, a blue circular indicator appears to the right of the panel name showing the count.

For conceptual background, refer to Threshold/Resource Updates.
