Using vRanger > My Inventory view > Working Inventory pane

Working Inventory pane

The Working Inventory pane lists any configured jobs for the node selected in the Inventory pane.

The data presented here — including Type, Name, and Schedule — can be sorted by dragging a column heading. When you click, an arrow is displayed in the column heading, indicating the sort order — ascending or descending. Click the column heading again to change the sort order. The same data can be grouped by dragging a column heading to the target area above all the headings. Taking this step groups current jobs by that data type.

If you click to select a job in the Working Inventory pane and then click the Run icon, the job is moved to the My Jobs: Scheduled Jobs. From this location, you can start the job. After the backup has been completed, it is moved to My Jobs: Recent Jobs.
