Processes/Jobs

The RDMS web interface allows you to observe certain processes/jobs that you do via the web interface. For that, the Processes/jobs view on the left-side menu can be used. Moreover, this view allows you to observe the status of your Delayed Rules, a concept that will be explained in this section as well.

If you perform certain operations in the RDMS web interface, these get registered as processes. The status of these processes can be observed here.

Currently, the following operations are visible as processes:

  1. Uploading of data via the web interface
  2. Bundling operations (compress to tar or decompress)
  3. Extraction of metadata
  4. Different steps of the Archiving Workflow

By clicking on a listed process, you can get more details about it.

This shows you, for example, the kind of process and the data on which it was executed. Moreover, every process gets a process number as well as a ID. The ID can be used to correlated the job to a Delayed Rule (see below) if applicable.

Note: Not all jobs are executed as Delayed Rules as will described below. For example the upload operation, is not a delayed rule, but it has a Delayed Rule associated with it that is executed in the background (computation of data checksum).
