Job Log

The Job Log tab enables you to view the logs of executed jobs belonging to you or to users whose job logs you are authorized to see. You can view log and trace information, download trace files, open job logs, delete job logs, refresh job logs, or access related help for job logs on the Job Log tab. You can also view log and trace information for the daily and on-demand Log Purge, Schedule Purge, and Library Expiration jobs. The Log Purge, Schedule Purge, and Library Expiration logs can be accessed from the system folder. The logs for other jobs can be accessed under the folder of the user to whom the job belongs.
