Stopping a job

You can only stop jobs in the queue when their status is "Active". All jobs that are stopped will remain in the queue with the Last Result shown as "Cancelled".

When stopping any type of job, only the selected instance of the job is stopped. Custom jobs are removed and will not run, verses repeating jobs where only the selected instance is stopped. The next scheduled instance of the repeating job will appear in the queue set to run based the jobs execution cycle.

With this in mind, the Stop function is the preferred method to use (as opposed to the Delete function) when dealing with repeating jobs that you want ARCserveIT to run based on their execution cycle.

ARCserveIT will prompt you to confirm that this is the operation required. The job's status is shown as stopped.
