Overview
The EVM Jobs View appears when you click Jobs on the EVM navigation line. The page provides a list of existing jobs and undo-jobs and allows you to review job information and perform job management actions.
Active Job Indicator
When an EVM job is running, its name is displayed in the active job indicator bar at the top of the view. When no job is running, the active job indicator bar does not appear.
To view an active job's progress, click Monitor. The EVM Job Monitor page will appear.
New Job
To create a job, click New Job in the Subsystem box. The Create EVM Job page will appear.
Jobs List
Job Name. Name of the EVM job or undo-job.
Jobs that you create have names that begin with the subsystem identifier: stor1_ followed by the job name that you assigned.
Undo-jobs are special jobs created by EVM. Undo-job names begin with the prefix undo, followed by the name of the job that was run.

Summary. The job summary box presents source and target information.
Source information includes the replication method, the storage units to be replicated and the subsystem.
Target information includes the name of the server on which the new BCV units will be mounted and the mount points. The sequence of mount points is presented in the same order as the sequence of source units.
For an undo-job, the information reflects what will be undone.
Job Actions
To perform an EVM job management function, click one of the job action buttons.
Delete. To delete a job, scroll through the jobs list then click Delete. The Delete EVM Job page will appear for the selected job.
Details. To review a job, scroll through the jobs list then click Detail. The EVM Job Detail page will appear for the selected job.
Execute. To run a job, scroll through the jobs list then click Execute. The Execute EVM Job page will appear for the selected job.

Notes
While an EVM job is running, the action buttons are not displayed. This safety feature prevents conflicts between jobs.
You cannot validate or delete an EVM undo-job.
