The SSH Session Management adds the possibility to end orphaned remote processes started by SSH Jobs or orphaned JobScheduler tasks from SSH Jobs.

Use Case

What happens if the connection to your remote host is broken, while a script is still running? How can the JobScheduler Job which started the remote script know about that?

What happens if a remote script has finished, but the JobScheduler task which started the process remotely can not know about that (e.g. because of a temporarily broken network connection).

The SSH Session Management provides a solution for dealing with that type of issues. It provides the possibility to configure an additional JobChain to check for orphaned processes on the remote host as well as check for orphaned tasks.

You can configure your existing JobChain for your SSH jobs to start the monitoring JobChain, which then will monitor the task of your original JobChain as well as the processes started on the remote host via SSH.

Mode Of Operation

To use the SSH Session Management you have to configure your SSH Job and define a cleanup job chain for the cleanup work.
