Jobs Dashboard

View Running Discovery Jobs on the Jobs Dashboard​

The Jobs Dashboard provides users with actionable insight into running discovery jobs. Whether you're running network scans, hypervisor discovery, or cloud assessments, this dashboard gives you real-time visibility into job statuses, with the ability to 'kill' jobs and export job details as a CSV file.

Via the main menu, navigate to Analytics > Jobs Dashboard. The dashboard has three other sub-dashboards: Completed Jobs, Queue Processing Stats, and Other Jobs Summary.

Kill and Delete a Running or Hung Discovery Job​

Check the box next to the job name(s) you want to kill, then select one of the Kill selected job(s) options from the dropdown menu:

  • The first Allow Pending Jobs to Complete option will terminate the ongoing discovery but let any payloads in the queue finish processing.
  • The second Remove Pending Jobs Immediately option will terminate the ongoing discovery job and remove any payloads in the queue. If a discovery is half-finished when cancelled, it will be ended, and no further devices will be added or updated. However, if timed correctly, there may be an edge case where payloads are dispatched to the MA after emptying the queue.
