Rescheduling and Modifying the Recurrence of Jobs in Security Director

You can reschedule a job and modify its recurrence from the Job Management page. You can reschedule and modify jobs only in the following cases:

  • The job supports scheduling and recurrence, and it is currently in the Scheduled state.

  • The schedule of a job in the Failed or Success state is a recurring job

  • The job was created as a recurring job. This behavior is true for all scheduled jobs except the following:

    • Backing up configuration files

    • Backing up the MySQL and PostGreSQL database

    • Generating reports

To reschedule and modify the recurrence of jobs triggered by any user in Junos Space Platform, you must be assigned the privileges of a Job Administrator. However, you can reschedule or modify the recurrence settings of jobs that are scheduled by you.
