The priority settings are used to prioritize resource allocation when two or more jobs are scheduled to run at the same time. You can change the default job priority settings from the Change Settings page.

By default, the Schedule Manager assigns the following priority levels:

To change the priority settings globally for all jobs, use the following procedure. You can override the priority setting for an individual job by configuring the Job Priority option in the Schedule Set. For more information, see Creating Schedule Sets, Table 35.
