9.1 Controlling the execution of a jobnet and jobs

Even after you start executing a jobnet, you can change the schedule of the jobnet or control the execution of the jobnet or jobs. For example, if you find an abnormality while you are monitoring the execution status, you can interrupt the execution of the jobnet or kill the jobnet. When you interrupt or kill a jobnet, you can re-execute from the desired jobnet or job.

The following table lists the types of control available for jobnets and jobs.
