SKR/MetaMap Batch Job Status Window Help Information

Field Description
Suspend My Job This button allows you to stop execution of any job currently in the Scheduler queue that you personally own. The current state of the job is saved when your job is suspended which allows you to later "resume" a job if you wish.
Refnum This is the reference number that the batch was assigned when it was submitted to the Scheduler. The reference numbers are unique and assigned randomly. There is a loose association with the PID (Process ID) of the submission script.
Priority
0-n
Priority of the job. There are currently three possible priorities:
      0 -- Normal priority with a single slice of processing
      1 -- Medium priority with a 10 to 1 slice of processing
      2 -- High priority with 100% of the processing
User Username of the user who submitted the job.
M Mnemonic of the current status of the job.
      D -- Done: All items have been assigned a workstation and are currently being processed.
      P -- Paused: The job has been paused, usually this means the entire queue has been paused due to problems with the Scheduler.
      Q -- Queued: In the queue, but, not currently being processed.
      R -- Running: Currently being processed.
Number
Of Items
The number of items found in the input file that require processing.
Processed
Items
Number of items processed so far. Special Note: The Scheduler distributes the processing of individual items across a pool of workstations so this number may not represent a linear completion of items, but, represents a total count of items completed so far.
Number
Errors
Number of errors encountered during the processing of this batch. Special Note: The Scheduler will rerun for a second try any item that produces an error. This means that from time to time, you may notice this number fluctuate up (as an error occurs) and then down (as the item completes without error on the second attempt).
ETOC
(hours)
This is the Estimated Time of Completion for the job. This number is continously updated and represents the following:

ETOC = Average Processing Time per item X Number of items left to process
(The ETOC is shown in hours)
APT
(secs)
NOTE:This is only available when the Batch Status window is started from the Batch Mode page - so that we can tell what user you are. The APT is only displayed for the owner of the batch job.

Average Processing Time per item is a cumulative average of how long the delay is between results being received for this job.

APT = Total delay in seconds / Number of items processed
(The APT is shown in seconds)

Special Note: APT and ETOC are calculated for each individual job and represent the actual processing time at the moment that the Batch Job Status snapshot was taken.
