Native execution job state table
As the job scheduler and grid endpoint process a native execution job, the job state updates in the job scheduler database.
The following table lists the possible states that a native execution job can have and the events that trigger state transitions. You can view the current state of a native execution job in the administrative console job management pages. You can retrieve the state using the command line, enterprise bean, or web service interfaces to the job scheduler.
