Changing a Job's Type

Each Job has a type that is specified when you create it. When an Agent is attached to a WAFS Job, its type is displayed on the Job's Options tab. A Job type can be modified from the Server. Typically, there is no reason to change a Job type; however, if you change a Job type, it is changed for that Job on all Agents.

To change a Job's type

1. In the Windows system tray, click the Server icon then click Display the Availl Server control panel. The Server Console appears.

2. Click Server > Manage Jobs. The Job Administration console appears in the default Web browser.

   

3. Click Detail for the Job whose type you want to change. The Job Information page appears.

5. In the Job Type box, click the down arrow to select the type of Job (Wide Area File System or Continuous File Backup).

6. Click Save, then restart the Server to save the changes.
