Viewing Jobs

Question:

Can I allow a group of people to view a job I set up?

Answer:

JobScheduler web and XML interface via TCP/IP can be configured to restrict access to a number of hosts:

<security ignore_unknown_hosts = "yes">
  <allowed_host host = "192.11.0.0"  level = "info"/>
  <allowed_host host = "192.11.0.99" level = "none"/>
  <allowed_host host = "192.11.0.27" level = "all"/>
</security>

This configuration is translated as follows:

• All hosts in the network 192.11.0.0 have read access to the scheduler interface, i.e. logs and schedules
• The host 192.11.0.99 is not allowed any access
• The host 192.11.0.27 is allowed full access, i.e. start jobs and orders, remove jobs etc.

"Viewing" means that the web interface shows this job and that XML responses are delivered to any application on the specified host that requests this information.
