Jobs
What the archive is doing right now, what is queued behind it, and what failed.
Jobs is the operational view of the archive. Everything the system is working through appears here, live.
The four counters
| Counter | Meaning |
|---|---|
| In queue | Accepted and waiting for a worker. |
| In progress | Currently being worked on. |
| Finished | Completed successfully. |
| Failed | Did not complete. |
Kinds of job
| Kind | What it does |
|---|---|
| Archive | Copies a file into the archive. |
| Replicate | Copies archived data to another storage target. |
| Restore | Brings an archived file back. |
Reading a row
Each row carries the job kind, the file it concerns, its size, the job id, status, progress, the worker that picked it up, the attempt count, when it was queued, its duration, and any error.
The Attempt column is written as a fraction, so 1/5 means the first of up to five attempts.
A job that has not been picked up yet shows its worker as Unassigned.
Live updates
The toggle in the top right switches the live stream on and off.
When the stream drops, a banner reports that live updates are not connected. The rows already loaded stay on screen and stop changing until the stream returns, and a Refresh now action re-reads them. Nothing queued is lost while the stream is down, only the view stops updating.
