"Next run" says "Disabled"

Post by pshute »

I just cloned a tape job, made a few changes and saved it. Now the Next Run column for that job says <Disabled>. I've scheduled it for the first Thursday of the month, so should it not be displaying 6 Jan 2016?

Hi Peter,

Cloned job is always set to disabled state to ensure it won’t interfere with the original before you modify it. Right click to Enable it once you modified it.

That makes sense. I see the option now - I have to untick "Disable". I was looking for "Enable".

True, sorry my bad – I should have mention that ‘Disable’ acts like a check box :)

Perhaps you could make it display a warning when a user opens a disabled cloned job - "Cloned job is disabled because ... etc ... Rick click and untick Disable to enable". That might help new users.

Make sense – I’ll pass your feedback to the UI team for internal discussion. Thanks
