Job History
The Job History tab on the Orchestrator Jobs page shows a record of discovery, inventory and management jobs for certificate stores, SSH
servers, SSL
endpoints and remote CAs. It keeps the three most recent inventory jobs, whether they have warnings, failed, or succeeded. Information on potential causes of the problem to allow for troubleshooting is provided for failed jobs.
There are several settings that control the behavior of orchestrator jobs in Settings > Application Settings-Agent Tab (see Application Settings: Agents Tab), most notably:
-
Job Failures and Warnings Age Out (days)
-
Notification Alert Email Recipients
-
Notification Alert Interval (minutes)
-
Number of times a job will retry before reporting failure
-
Number of times a job will retry connecting to PAM providers
The operations available on the Job History tab are:
Figure 282: Orchestrator Job History
The Job History grid includes these fields:
Orchestrator
The host on which the orchestrator was running. [All]
Target
The target machine name followed by the path and file name to the certificate store on the target machine for many types of jobs, the endpoint group name for SSL jobs, or the CA
name for remote CA jobs. This field may be blank for some types of jobs.
Schedule
The time at which or frequency with which a job was scheduled to run. Add and remove certificate jobs, will show Immediately unless they were scheduled for a later time. Renewal and reenrollment jobs will always show Immediately since they don’t support later scheduling, as will fetch logs jobs.
Job Type
The type of job that was run and in some cases the orchestrator type associated with the job (e.g. F5 SSL Profiles Management, PEM File Discovery, Java Keystore
Inventory or CA Synchronization).
Operation Start
The time at which the job was run.
Operation End
The time at which the job was completed.
Result
The outcome of the job—e.g. Success, Failure, or Warning. Under some circumstances—for example, jobs that are still actively running—Unknown may appear here.
Status
The status of the job—e.g. Acknowledged, Completed, CompletedWillRetry, or InProcess. If a job shows as CompletedWillRetry, it has failed at least once, is automatically retrying five times, by default (see the Number of times a job will retry before reporting failure in Application Settings: Agents Tab) and cannot be rescheduled because it is still attempting to run.
Message
The message indicating the reason for the failure or warning, if applicable. Double-click the grid row or right-click and choose Expand Message from the right-click menu to read the error message in full.
