Monitor Screen Context Menu
The Monitor screen supports the following context menu options.
Note: In this context, a Process is a Workflow call or Job call.
Note: For generally applicable object context menu options, see Object Context Menu.
Action | Description |
---|---|
Scheduling > Edit | Edit the Process's scheduling data. You can do this only if the Process is in an initial state (not Running). |
Scheduling > Resubmit | Submits a new Process based on this Process (with the same parameters and so forth). This option displays a new window that lets you edit the values before the Process is submitted. |
Scheduling > Hold | Places the Process into Held status, preventing it from being executed until it is manually released. |
Scheduling > Release | Releases the Process, allowing it to be executed automatically if all of its scheduling constraints are met. |
Scheduling > Enable | Enables a disabled Step or Process. |
Scheduling > Disable | Disables a Step or Process. |
Scheduling > Kill | Kills a running Process by sending it a signal to stop running. Killing a Process may not always be instantaneous. For Workflow calls, this will kill all currently running Job calls in the Workflow. |
Scheduling > Cancel | Cancels a Process that has not yet started running. This will prevent the Process from ever starting. For Workflow calls, this will cancel all Job calls that have not yet started. Running Job calls are allowed to reach a final status. |
Scheduling > Restart | Submits and executes a new Process based on this Process (with the same parameters and so forth). This will submit and start the Process immediately, without prompting. Note that the value of the Hold on Submit scheduling parameter is carried over to the new Process. However, it is ignored -- the Process will start as soon as possible. |
Scheduling > Restart from Error | Restarts a Process. For Workflow calls, ths restarts the Step that reached status Error, Killed, or Unknown. Identical to Restart for Jobs that are not in a Workflow. |
Scheduling > Run Now | Executes a Process as soon as possible, regardless of any locks or events it depends on. |
Event and Lock Handling > Add raise event | Adds a raise event to the selected Process. Available only for Processes in a PreRunning state. |
Event and Lock Handling > Remove raise event | Removes a raise event from the selected Process. |
Event and Lock Handling > Add wait event | Adds a wait event to the selected Process and optionally clears the event. Available only for Processes in a PreRunning state. |
Event and Lock Handling > Remove wait event | Removes a wait event from the selected Process. |
Event and Lock Handling > Add lock | Adds a wait event to the selected Process and optionally clears the event. Available only for Processes in a PreRunning state. |

New Alert Rule | Lets you create a new Process Alert Source or a Workflow, with a default Name and Name Pattern. |
Update | Updates the Process to use the latest definitions. |
