FEATURE REQUEST - Auto fix chained jobs or give warning

Post by winnt »

When I delete a job in a chain, the connected jobs get silently disabled. Let's say I have five backup jobs that are chained to run in this order:
1. Backup_File_Server_NewYork
2. Backup_File_Server_Cleveland
3. Backup_File_Server_Columbus
4. Backup_File_Server_Chicago
5. Backup_File_Server_SanDiego

If we shut down our Cleveland file server, and then delete that backup job, the Columbus job and all the following jobs are set to disabled and stop running with no errors. If a backup job is deleted, it should either just link its predecessor and the job following, or at least give a warning that all jobs will be disabled, and prevent the job from being deleted.

Thanks!

Agree - we need to add a warning when deleting a job that is a part of a chain. Thanks!
