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.

You can control the execution of jobnets and jobs by changing the unit definition in the Define Details dialog box after the unit has been registered for execution. However, changes to certain units might not take effect depending on the status of the root jobnet. For details, see 7.4 Changing the unit definition information during registration for execution in the JP1/Automatic Job Management System 3 Administration Guide.
