To see more specific information about your job chains, filter your information using the options available on the left section of this view.

You can filter by:

  • Duration - use the sliders to filter by the duration of the job chain 
  • Job Chain Outcome - filter by the general outcome of the job chain. This status can be: Failed, Succeeded, or Unknown. Take into account that in order to have a Succeeded status, all jobs in the chain must be successful.  
Tip

When using filters take into account:

  • If you want to select filters first and apply the changes later, unselect the option Apply filter as it changes.
  • To remove filters, use the specific Remove Filter option in each filter. For example, if you want to remove your Instance filters, click Remove INSTANCE Filter under the same filter section.
  • Under FILTERED BY on the top section or your Job Trend view, you can see the filters you have selected. Click the X icon next to the ones you want to remove.
  • Use the option Clear on the top section of the Filtering section to remove all filters.
