Native execution job state table

As the job scheduler and grid endpoint process a native execution job, the job state updates in the job scheduler database.

The following table lists the possible states that a native execution job can have and the events that trigger state transitions. You can view the current state of a native execution job in the administrative console job management pages. You can retrieve the state using the command line, enterprise bean, or web service interfaces to the job scheduler.

Start and end states include submitted, non-existent, executing, cancel-pending, canceled, execution failed, and ended.

Table 1. Native grid utility job state table . The table lists the start state, the client command, the grid action, the special condition, and the end state. An empty table cell indicates that there is not a client command, action, condition, or end state for the start state.
