Once a job has been released by the client, it will be left in RSM's job history for a certain amount of time before it is garbage collected and cleaned up. During this interval you can still view the job's status and details, and save a job report for debugging purposes. However, since the job is done and has been released, you should not try to perform any more job-related actions prior to cleanup (such as requesting output files or aborting the job).
Clearing out jobs in a timely manner improves the performance of RSM and optimizes memory usage.
Default job cleanup values are as follows:
Finished jobs: 02:00:00 (2 hours)
Failed jobs: 1.00:00:00 (1 day)
Cancelled jobs: 00:10:00 (10 minutes)
To edit the job cleanup period:
Select Settings in the left pane.
In the Job Cleanup Period pane, specify the desired time period for each job status. The following values are acceptable:
D (days) = integer indicating the number of days
H (hours) = 0–23
MM (minutes) = 0–59
SS (seconds) = 0–59
You can enter only the number of days (without the zeros), only the hours/minutes/seconds, or both.
Examples:
1.00:00:00 or 1 = one day.
1.12:00:00 = 1.5 days
02:30:00 = 2.5 hours
00:15:00 = 15 minutes
