    • Refresh Update the information on that Job from the Supervisor
    • Filter Dependencies Only display the jobs that are up or downstream dependencies of the selected jobs. This will fill in the Search Filter. Clear it to view all jobs again.
    • Retry... Retry the entire job. Also see the more commonly used "Resubmit" action below.
    • Retry Failed Frames... Retry only the frames listed as failed.
    • Interrupt... Kills the job, and then requeues it for another Worker (that is, it goes into the Pending state). The slider allows you to try to kill the N jobs which have been running for the shortest time, in order to throw away the least amount of work. This is the same as using qbinterrupt on the command line.
    • Block (+ Purge) Kill the job, and put it back in the queue in the Blocked state.
    • Block (+ Finish Current) Let the job finish, then kill the rest of its frames and put it back in the queue in the Blocked state.
    • Unblock Put a blocked job back in the active queue.
    • Shove... Tell the Supervisor to reevaluate this job. Useful if parameters have been changed with Prioritize or Modify (below).
    • Kill Kill a running or pending job. This job will not run again unless retried or resubmitted.
    • Remove... Remove the job from the Supervisor's MySQL database.
    • Prioritize... Adjust the job's priority on the fly. A lower number means a higher priority.
    • Modify... Adjust other tweakable job fields on the fly.
    • Resubmit... Submit a new job with the job properties of the existing job used as default.
    • View Output... View the output images in an external browser (if the Jobtype supports it)
    • Browse Output Dirs... Open a file browser to the specified files.
    • Execute in Local Shell... For commandline derived jobs, run the same command that the Workers call on the local machine. This is useful for troubleshooting.
    • Open Job Log Dir... Open the directory containing the logs for the selected job. This is useful for troubleshooting.
    • Zip and Open Job Log Dir... Zip up and open the directory containing the logs for the selected job. This is useful for troubleshooting and can be used to easily send the resulting logs out via email.
    • Copy Id's to clipboard...  Copy the job numbers to the computer's clipboard, for pasting into a document or email.
    • Save As... Save the selected job as a file (by default in an xml format). It can be submitted with the "Submit->Job from File" menu item.

     

    Info
    titleJob State Terminology
    • When you retry a job, that means you attempt to assign it to new Workers as-is; none of the submission parameters are changed.
    • When you resubmit a job, you have the chance to change some or all of the submission parameters before it is assigned to a Worker or Workers.
    • When you kill a job, it is stopped immediately on all Workers. The job can be retried or resubmitted later, but you must choose to do that.
    • Blocking a job puts the instance or work item into a blocked state until something unblocks it. You can block a job immediately, in which case it is pulled from the Worker(s) and put into the blocked state, or you can ask that it wait for the current frame to finish first.
    • Interrupt removes a job (or several) from their current host(s), and then puts them back into the Pending state, where they can be picked up by another Worker. The slider allows you to interrupt N jobs, in which case it will sort all the current jobs by the amount of time they have been running, and interrupt the shortest-running ones. It does this to try to throw away the least amount of work.

    MetaJob Panel

    The "Meta Job Panel" is not displayed by default. It is displayed via the View menu, with the "View->Show/Hide: MetaJob Panel" menu item. There is also a hotkey, <Shift+Ctrl+M>, which will toggle it on and off.
