Associating a job name and description with a node configuration job

You can associate a job name and description with IBM® Sterling Control Center node configuration jobs.

Job names and descriptions enable users to see more descriptive information about a node configuration job in the Queued and Completed Job Viewer listings. As a result, configuration jobs can be released using their assigned name, not just their system-assigned Job ID. You can specify a job name and job description to any Connect:Direct® node configuration job you create, update, or delete.

You can specify a job name and job description in the following ways:

When you are creating, updating, copying parameters, copying or deleting a node configuration job, you can specify a job name, job description, or both on the Other Options dialog box.
In the Queued Job Viewer, view job properties and specify a job name, job description, or both on the Other Options dialog box.

The Queued Job Viewer and Completed Job Viewer job listings display the job name and job description you specified for the job.
