The Journal

You can start the Journal by selecting the icon from the Control Center toolbar. The Journal allows you to monitor jobs and review results. From the Journal, you can also display the recovery history and DB2 messages. The Journal allows you to monitor pending jobs, running jobs, and job histories; review results; display recovery history and alert messages; and show the log of DB2 messages.

Working with Jobs

Use the Journal to work with jobs. To open the Journal:

  1. Click the Journal icon from the Script Center toolbar. The Journal opens.

  2. To see the jobs which are scheduled to be run at a later time, click the Pending jobs push button. You see your job in the list of pending jobs. You also see all the information about the jobs. You can perform actions on a pending job, such as reschedule it, show the scripts associated with it, or run it immediately. When a saved script is modified, all jobs that are dependent on it inherit the new modified behavior.

From the Journal, you can also see the jobs that are currently running and the job histories.
