Step Table

This main area of the Station Job List view shows a row for each step that has been executed against the station. Note that no record is available for a step’s execution unless it has started. For this reason, the following steps do not appear in this view:

steps for jobs not yet started.
steps for jobs that are running, but are still running prior steps.
steps that come after any earlier steps (for any station) that were canceled.
steps that would have executed after another step, but the other step failed for this station.

Because of this, the Station Job List is not the appropriate view to find the answer for questions like “why did the backup scheduled for Tuesday on this station not run?”. For this type of information, you should look in the Niagara Network Job List of the ProvisioningNwExt.

The step table includes columns for various data. You can do any of the following within the table:

Click the “>>” (Details) button to the right of the status for any step to view its Step Log File View (same as using the Step Details button at the bottom of the view).
Double-click any step row to view its Job Log, a series of log messages about the step stored in its job log file (same as using the View Log button at the bottom of the view).
Right-click a step for a popup menu, providing same functions as buttons (at bottom of view).

Step table columns

Step table columns in the Station Job List include the following:

Job Step — the type of job step, such as “Backup Stations” and so on (for more details, see Niagara provisioning job steps).
Start — time the step started executing for the station.
End — time the step completed for the station.
Status — the status of the step for the station (note that the overall status for the job, and the status value for the step in other stations, may be different) as one of the following:
- Running — step is executing.
- Canceling — request to cancel the step was sent, but has not been processed yet, and the step is still executing.
- Success — step finished successfully, and is no longer running.
- Canceled — step was canceled before it completed, and is no longer running.
- Failed — the step failed and is no longer running.
The status column ends with a “>>” (Details) button for each job, this function the same as the Step Details button at the bottom of this view.
