The job log

The job log is updated when you validate, run, or reset a job. You can use the log to troubleshoot jobs that fail during validation, or that are aborted when they are run.

For parallel jobs, you can also define message handlers, which specify that particular types of informational or warning messages are suppressed from the log. Message handlers can be assigned to jobs at the project level (from the Administrator client), the Job Design level (from the Designer client), or for individual job runs (from the Director client). You can define a handler from the Director client, or from the Designer client. For more details see Message handlers.
